    Picked up a CF-25 and I'm using my bench power supply with it but I'd really like to have something that doesn't weigh 20lbs to power this thing.

    Looking for an original Panasonic adaptor.

    I don't want a a China adapter!

    Also I'm missing the floppy door, rear port door, PCMCIA door, power jack rubber cover, and need a keyboard (or just a spacebar with hardware).

    Interested in parts units too.

    Let me know what you have!

    Aaron, I have a shed-load of cf-25 parts. Trouble is I won't be back in the UK until 14th December. If you still haven't sourced the bits by then, PM me. I'm sure I've got everything you need - plus a lot more - including CD units, media bay 2nd batteries (not sure if they will be any good now), spare batteries etc, etc.

    Most excellent. Parts for these are hard to come by... think everyone wrote them off as being useless!

    Ha ha - yes but they can still do a good job. My wife still has one in the kitchen with all her recipes on. It's been steamed, baked and boiled, as well as being covered with more than the odd glass of wine. Not the fastest thing in the world, but it still keeps going, so I certainly haven't written it off as useless (the computer that is, not the wife). God, I hope she's not a member here!

    For the most part, yes. I've been buyign them up on ebay whenever I locate a 12" screen model.

    I am interested in a NON password protected MK3 motherboard however. Mine is locked so I can't change the 'supervisor' menu items.

    Always interested in parts too!
