[OPLINTECH] power brick

[Chad Neeper]

I stopped buying manufacturer/laptop-specific power adapters and started using universal laptop adapters for my own laptops. The universal ones are nice because they will work with a wide variety of laptops and not just a single specific laptop. If you go this route, I strongly recommend _against_ buying one of the Targus brands (and another brand that looks very similar...possibly OEMed...) Unless they've changed their design, I can almost guarantee that the clear plastic cable connectors will break over time. I've seen it on numberous Targus adapters. I'm currently using an American Power Conversion (APC) adapter, which is better constructed.

Does anyone have a power brick AC adapter for an IBM Net Vista machine that
they may have retired?  It is part #24P6870.
