    Hey Everyone,

    I just got my Sony Vaio SZ440 today and I must say... I am more than impressed. I love everything about this system! It's awesome. One issue though!!! The AC adapter it came with is HUGE... so I ordered the stick adapter... Unfortunately... I screwed up and got the TX series stick adapter which is rated for 16V... the SZ adapter I have says 19V... Please someone tell me it will still work!!! Thanks in advance....

    Leave it to Sony to make an AC adapter look sexy! LOL. I love this thing! It's not much smaller or lighter though. Just long and thin... I guess that's more portable isn't it...? Oh well... It looks good with my SZ xP And I bought this laptop based on how good it looks more than performance sooooo I'll deal with it.
