    www.woot.com sells 1 item every 24 hours. And today's woot is a Targus Universal Notebook AC/DC Adapter for $29.99 with $5.00 shipping, so $35. It is refurbished, but it looks like it's a good buy! Maybe?

    It only goes up to 16V DC so "Universal" is maybe not so universal. There's also no power rating. For your setup you probably need a 90W adapter and this might as well be a 60/70W adapter...
