[iBook] MacAlly ac adapter

[CJ]

Thanks!!  I'll buy one tonight.  $50 for the ring is not worth it imo.

I've been using the MacAlly adapter with my 700MHz white iBook for a
few months. and it works just fine. The model number is AP5024 and is
supposed to work with the iBook and PowerBooks. The only thing that it
doesn't have is the ring around the plug that glows orange when
charging and turns green when charged. The only way you tell what this
one is doing is to check the menubar to see progress. Hope this helps.
