Finepix need to down load can not put pictures on computer

WELL, AFTER MUCH DIGGING I FINALLY FOUND AN ANSWER IN ONE ARTICLE! IT SEEMS LIKE ONE MUST EITHER PLACE THE MEMORY CARD INTO A CARD SLOT IN THE COMPUTER, IF YOU HAPPEN TO BE USING A LATE MODEL LAPTOP OR DESKTOP THAT HAS THE CARD READER SLOTS OR YOU HAVE TO USE A USB CARD READER TO TRANSFER THE PICTURES! THIS IS NOT A PRETTY PICTURE! OOPS! BUT YOU GET THE IDEA. IT'S NOT LIKE MOST CAMERAS THAT JUST USE A USB TO CAMERA CABLE, THIS ONE IS REALLY DIFFERENT. I'VE NEVER SEEN THIS CAMERA, EXCEPT IN WEBSHOTS, BUT THIS IS NOT AN IDEAL DOWNLOAD UNLESS YOU HAPPEN TO HAVE A SLOT ALREADY AND THEN IT WOULD BE NICE. CARD READERS ARE VERY CHEAP AND CAN BE FOUND ALMOST ANYWHERE, EBAY,AMAZON, MOST RADIO SHACKS, CIRCUIT CITY ETC. YOU JUST HAVE TO PUT YOUR MEMORY CARD INTO THE READER AND INSERT IT INTO A USB PORT AND THEN USE YOU REGULAR SOFTWARE PROGRAM LIKE PICASA3, OR WINDOWS PCTURE GALLERY ETC. HOPE THIS HAS ANSWERED YOUR QUESTION AND BEEN HELPFUL. IF SO, PLEASE RATE IT. THANKS!
