Okay, my laptop problem is over, no need to buy one, my dad gave me his old one. Granted, it's nothing special...an older Compaq Armada 1592DMT...my problem is this, I have no power cord. The power plugs into a little three pronged thingy (don't know how else to describe it)...and I need to know where to get a cable. Can someone help me?

Targus carries a universal adapter compatible with most laptops.

<edit>I only see a two pronged one on their site, and I don't see any power cables on Compaq's site.</edit>

Okay...I just ordered on from Provantage.com...the description was for a 3 conducter Compaq Laptop Power Cable...sounds about as accurate as can be so...knock on wood.

It's killing me having a laptop just sitting around, and not being able to use it.
