quick question

hey all. i have an ibook G4 and my power cord broke and my computer's battery died. i'm just wondering if anyone has a spare power cord for that model laptop lying around that they would be willing to send to me. i know it's asking a lot, but i'm broke right now. i'd be happy to return it as soon as my loan check comes in (mid-feb) and i can buy a new cord. i know it's a long shot, but i thought i would ask. i'm missing my computer and thought there might be someone who's got a spare.

thanks for that although it looks way too involved. i don't think i'll be trying it as i don't want to mess with it as it could be dangerous. but thanks anyway.

that is kind of creepy. it's like we've got some weird cosmic alliance going on.

edit: you said we're from near the same place. where are you? your profile says oakland.
