    Anyone have a clue where I can get a replacement?

    I'm planning on buying new clevo x8100 but I was gonna give this OCZ whitebook to my mother, but the power supply is dying smoke and love the smell of burning plastic and all.

    I would look for a universal PSU which has the correct voltage output, a current that is at least as much as the existing PSU and a selection of DC plugs. I would expect whitebook manufacturers to use one of the standard DC plug sizes.
