[QUOTE="333mhz, post: 920432, member: 115556"] I got a Indigo Clamshell online without a charger. The battery does not work. I finally got a 3rd party charger which was confirmed compatible with the laptop, but its not working. The band around the charger port doesn't go green, and the computer doesn't turn on. The charger does seem to work as the LED on it is green when plugged into the mains. The head on it clicks in, but I personally feel it pokes out too much. It doesn't look like it slots in correctly, and a lot of the metal doesn't seem to fit in. I have spent a total of $140NZD on both the Clam and the charger. Is the 3rd party charger incompatible, or have I been sold a broken Clamshell? The point: What I need is for someone to post a picture of their iBook Clamshell with a charger plugged in. I need the photo to be taken on the underside of the iBook (so you can see the charger and the bottom of the computer, which is usually face down). I want to compare it to the charger I have just bought to see if the head is too big, or if my Clam is just garbage. Please reply urgently as there is an original Yoyo charger I have my eye on incase the 3rd party charger is the problem, and not the Clam. Regards, Josh [/QUOTE]
