    My X60 shipped with a 65 watt ac adapter, but i ordered a 2nd adapter with it and that was 90 watts (like the T60 uses)...
    I see the TA book lists both 65 and 90 watt adapters under options.

    Has anyone used a 90 watt adapter with an X60/X60s ?? Can i??
    I dont wanna fry my power pack!

    Thx

    It seems that you can use higher wattage A/C adaptors, so long as the plug is correct, and the other specs match or are electronically matched (as in generic A/c adaptors).

    What you don't want happen is to get an A/C adaptor that is LOWER in wattage.
