I slept for a while and woke up feeling lightheaded and confused as one does when one is sick and takes an epic afternoon nap and then I knocked my laptop to the floor, breaking the power cord.

:(

The trouble is, I want to replace the computer anyway, but not for a few months -- there's supposed to be a better netbook processor coming out soonish. But it doesn't make sense to spend $50 getting a new power cord for a computer that I'm looking to replace as soon as possible, either.

In the larger scheme of things, "Two computers or one?" is not a huge problem to have, but in my defense, having a laptop means I can type while sitting on my bed, which is beside the air conditioner, which is a lot more comfortable.

It might help to check eBay -- I've replaced power cords very cheaply there.

Or maybe a repair shop? I've given them ex-laptops that I know they've cannibalized for other laptops.
