    Alas, the charger will easily cost more than $100. Even low-end laptops that use AC adapters with a much smaller output rating cost $80+.

    Thats one of the reasons I bought a W370ET.

    Purchased an universal 10-tip Fortron 150W adapter (same size as a 120W) for less than 70$.

    EDIT: The guys from FORTRON need to seriously make a 180W and 220W line of adapters.
    The demand for cheaper and smaller high-end laptop adapters is huge now IMHO.
    I hope they make these soon....

    Any OEM brick is going to cost substantially more than an aftermarket adapter like that. Sometimes you can get a good universal adapter, but you take your chances. I don't know of any universals for the P150.

    Sooo..
    Aside from the obviously expensive OEM chargers...
    Does anybody know of a solid charger that would suit the Clevo 150? (180w?)
