    I'm about to blow my Dell gift cards, and have just a little left $ over so I want to get a 3 prong cord. There are three to choose from--all about $12-- though none appears to be 'designed' for the XPS M1530.

    Any idea which of the following is best or which will even work the XPS M1530's AC adapter PA-10 Family, DF266?

    Option 1: Dell Part#: 310-7831
    This product is compatible with the following systems:
    Precision M6300, Precision M90​
    Option 2: Dell Part#: 310-7841
    This product is compatible with the following systems:
    Precision M90​

    Option 3: Dell Part#: 310-6329
    This product is compatible with the following systems:
    Inspiron 6000
    Inspiron 9200
    Inspiron 9300
    Latitude D410
    Latitude D610
    Latitude D810
    Precision M20 Mobile Workstation​

    NOTE: I will occasionally be using my AC adapter in Europe with 240VAC.

    OK, if anyone cares, I went with option #3 based on Mt9's part numbers:

    I'm hoping for the best.
