August 7, 200817 yr I think I just fried mine, but is that possible? My laptop charges fine with my brother's charger but mine doesn't seem to work. Question: Should I buy another one from lenovo or any cheap one from ebay? or does anyone have a spare?
August 7, 200817 yr Awesome. As for an adapter, I'd order directly from Lenovo. So many of the aftermarket stuff is crap that there's a good chance you'd just be throwing your money away on it.
August 7, 200817 yr Um, as for a notebook, I'd buy a refurb ThinkPad T40 for less than 1/3 the price of a new MacBook. Oh wait, that's what I did.

Hmm, there seems to be some lenovo chargers on ebay that look very similar to the real thing (which is $40 ) does anyone know if they're fake?

August 7, 200817 yr Hold on facepalm, didn't you used to captain lenovo? I still captain Linux. But nobody here even goes for that.. so its easier to persuade into Mac territory
August 7, 200817 yr Author I completely forgot that my brother's lenovo is still under warranty and he has the exactly the same charger as I do so .......
August 7, 200817 yr I still captain Linux. But nobody here even goes for that...Somewhen between back then and now, I've gone pretty much linux everywhere. I think half the machines I have access to are dual boot, or have a VM on them.
August 7, 200817 yr Somewhen between back then and now, I've gone pretty much linux everywhere. I think half the machines I have access to are dual boot, or have a VM on them. I only kept one Windows machine around for Lightroom. As of last week I am finally windows free. I use RHEL5.2 at work, Fedora 8, 9, 8, 8, OSX at home, and Fedora 5/SUSE 4 in my Lab. *nix FTW.
August 7, 200817 yr What I'm saying is, it is partly from the encouragement I've received here to do so.
August 7, 200817 yr What I'm saying is, it is partly from the encouragement I've received here to do so. Ah I see. My plan is working.
August 7, 200817 yr The igo works well. I remember owing someone an igo adapter. Who was it? Dan I could still use it if you have it. Thanks
August 9, 200817 yr Author Um, I sent a service request and I supposedly got the problem resolved. But I got this as the resolution CRUING THE FOLLOWING AC ADAPTER FRU 42T5282 This is probably a stupid question but does that mean that they're sending me one or I should go buy one?

In Thinkpad-speak, CRU is customer-replaceable unit. So, it sounds like they are sending you a replacement adapter.
