By old style PC card sleeve he means that the battery is not user replaceable (well not quickly anyway). Compaq or HP quit making this syle and went to the plus style which allows you to buy extra jacket batteries to take with you on a long airline flight for example. I don't remember off the top of my head, but I don't think there was much difference in battery life from the old style to the new style. But, you can do a search on ebay and compare the specs on the two styles there.
Even if the battery life was half you can't beat that price
