    Just bought an Aspire 8930G, and can't for the life of me find where to plug it in!

    Any suggestions? And I dont mean I cant find a socket, I cant find the place on the notebook it connects to...

    I mean there's only so many places things can get plugged in on a laptop. I'm sure if you look a little hard you will find the AC power port :p

    If it's anything like the 6920G/8920G, it's on the left side of the notebook in near the back, in that cylindrical thing that houses the subwoofer.
    When the ring around the power port lights up blue, you've got AC power.

    Oh, and when in doubt, read the user's guide. ;)
