    Hi all

    I just got my new Dell m1210 last week, its a fantastic laptop, light weight, runs fast, its really a powerful machine !

    I do have one concern tho..haven't seen this problem on my Asus laptop. I noticed the connection between the power plug and the DC power jack is kinda loose, what i am talking about is you can actually move the power plug a little bit while its plugged in to the DC jack..Now this problem didn't happen on my Asus laptop..is this normal ?

    thanks all

    Mine doesn't have that problem. Have you tried a multi-voltage power supply?

    You probably should not be able to do that. However, if when you wiggle it your computer never goes to battery power, you are probably okay. But yes, call Dell.
