[ltp] Power Supply Adapters for Cars?

[Joel Ebel]

I got an IBM DC power adapter to go with my T40.  I would guess that the 
same power connector fits the 600.  It's IBM P/N 22P9010.

I like it a lot better than a power inverter, but I still keep an 
inverter in my car for powering other devices and other friend's 
laptops.  I rather like having this power adapter though.  It will work 
on planes, cars, and standard AC.  And it has a nifty carrying case.
