I am using my three wire power cord on an Apple IBook's "hockey puck"
power supply. I found a replacement power cord at CompUSA and it was at
about $19.95. Anyone know of a lower cost replacement or where I can
find an original Apple power cord as it is connected with a 90 degree
connector at the "hockey puck" end of the cord (the cloverleaf end).
They are also used on grounded appliances.
