    I wouldn't use a PSU rated lower than 150W fr anything taxing the CPU/GPU. You might be able to get away with a 90W for light workloads as long as the voltage is the same ~19.5V. Anyways, the targus should be available on ebay, amazon and other e-tailers. Here for example: http://www.cablesalesusa.com/products/P-APA05US.html

    Thanks for the link Tijo. But $40+? Is that the cheapest price-range I can expect from an online retailer?

    There is this TARGUS UNIVERSAL NOTEBOOK AC ADAPTER PA-1181-08 APA05US W/ 1 CONNECTING TIP CORD | eBay

    $26 + $6 expidited shipping from ebay. Is that my best bet right now? I only ask because Ive had terrible experience with ebay in the past and would VERY much rather buy from a legit online retailer.

    ALSO
    which connecting tip would I need L1,L2, or L3?
