two-fer! // WTB: laptop power cord
15 years ago
I think I'm gonna start posting here more. Might get noticed more. Dunno. I certainly have more followers here than on LJ.

First, in trying to find a sofa for our future living room, we found a special deal on a kickass room-set that included a new 50" plasma TV. Guess we don't need to look for a TV for that room now, either! Looks like that room is complete!
We also just purchased a netbook with part of the tax refund, and found it came with the exact wall-to-brick power cord that her other laptop was missing. Hooray!
We'll be needing a second one eventually, though. Does anyone have a spare cable lying around they'd be willing to sell? It looks just the cable on the left- two-prong, round on both ends (not like a PS2 cord).
So now we haaaave... seven computers in this house. Good thing there's no law against technophilia! ataq (my desktop), pickles (my linux), madrugada (my laptop), vaio (decommissioned), semtop (out of order), acer (sj's desktop), netbook (it's new!). Hotnesssssss
