    Basic question I bet:

    Right now I have a one month old Vostro 1400 and a 2.5 year old Inspiron 6000.

    Their adapters are currently plugged into an outlet but not into the laptops.

    It isnt obvious looking at them now which is for which :confused: as the ends are identical. Although I see one is 65 watts and smaller than the other one whose watts I dont see listed.

    How can I tell them apart or does it matter?

    Both the Vostro 1400 and the Inspiron 6000 can use either a 65Watt or a 90Watt power supply. The 90Watt should charge the laptop faster.
