I was looking at power adapters, is this the correct one?

[Jesse714]

Yep, that one actually looks like the original, the ibooks and powerbook chargers have little lights, usually yellow, that glow when you have them plugged into your computer, and since its a 65W that tells me that its right, because my 12in powerbook and 15in powerbook both take 65W chargers, and thats the correct plug. And if you scroll down a little bit on the ebay page, it tells you the compatible computers, and yes yours is in there.
Good luck

That one is the same thing, a little cheaper with free shipping, and it comes with a bunch of different wall adapters.

Read carefully, it comes only with the U.S. plug unless the purchaser specifies a different adapter plug.

That note is at the very bottom of the list of compatible computers.

The one that Jesse714 found is not an Apple replacement, but a cheap knock-off. It doesn't appear to have the power LED in the cord connector, as the real ones do. That one would be a 'cheap' mistake....

How can I tell which is an Apple replacement and not a knock off?

[Jesse714]

it will have the apple logo on the side and a light by the pluggin
