If the laptop is a newer model produced with the last few years, then you can get HP replacement adapter at Best Buy. The sell what is essentially an HP "universal" that is compatible across numerous model lines using included adapter plugs. The best thing about them is last time I bought one it cost $35 vs. $80 for the direct part replacement. Go figure, same specs and everything.

Anyone know if there's a local place where I could find a replacement? I can get one on eBay but won't be here till sometime next week. I got some universal adapter a while ago from Radioshack but it doesn't seem to work with this laptop. :/ Thanks, Josh _______________________________________________ TCLUG Mailing List - Minneapolis/St. Paul, Minnesota tclug-list at mn-linux.org http://mailman.mn-linux.org/mailman/listinfo/tclug-list -------------- next part -------------- An HTML attachment was scrubbed...
