    Hi
    I lost my stock adapter from moving my house and I was planning to get a new one.

    I've been to compusa and microcenter they're selling sony adapter for $99.99 and $89.99 sonystyle$89.99 as well.

    I just bought a sony adapter from compusa yesterday...and I saw kensington adapter, but since I didn't have any information about that so I just purchased sony one.
    After I came home and learned about kensington it seemed very useful..I mean I can charge in the car.

    I was curious about Does 70W Kensington adapter will fit in my sony vaio-s560?
    then I'm going to return my sony adapter and purchase kensington.

    It's showing Input voltage: AC 100-240V
    Input amps: 19.5V At my sony adapter.
    but I saw somewhere I need 90w for my laptop.

    If your Sony SZ's a/c adaptor has a rating lower than 70W (usually 65) then you are ok. Otherwise, the step up is to get the 120W adaptor. They are curiously the exact same price online at various retailers. I would anyway suggest the 120W adaptor since it will work with "more" electronics that you own/or may own in the future
