Actually it's the new ones that use the 3 wire Mikey Mouse ears type
connector .
At least it is with the Compaq and Dell Laptops that are showing up here.
Radio Shack carries both types of Cords .
the 3wire ones are $4.49
This is the lowest price in North America ???
It should be 99 cents but hey what can ya do.
