My g/f's charger for her iBook, or whatever the **** it's called, got all ****ed up and was shooting sparkes and shit. So I took it home and fixed it as best I could, (thing was a real ***** to get apart) and as far as I can tell it works just fine now.

I measured the voltage coming out and I'm getting ~23VDC, does this sound right? I'd like to double check this thing before I plug it into her $2k mac.

Let me know.

Word.

I miss my dual 2.5 G5 (when they first came out, shit was watercooled from the factory son!)... replaced it with a Mac mini. Replaced that with a MacBook... and then I sold the MacBook here a few months ago.

Taint 12v... then you could hooke your lappy directly to your vehicle.

And I know you can't do that...

On the other hand, would be sweet if it just listed the voltage ON the charger itself, like my PC lappy...
