    What replacement power supplies can I use for my old V6V? Just a couple of weeks after getting the V1S and giving the V6V to my wife it's died, so we're having to charge her laptop from my PSU!

    Well, as for buying a new power supply you can either buy the official Asus one (my preferred method) or a universal. The universal needs to supply 65W and fit in the notebook. Look around on the Targus website, or several others and see if they list something that is compatible. Your other alternative is to find an Asus dealer and buy a 65W power supply from them.

    Stroke of luck - the distie we use at work sells Asus kit, so I can probably buy one from them!
