thanks!  How'd you get that list of equivalent part numbers?  I'm seeing similar lists on ebay auctions, but just by luck.  Love to be able to go to a (dell!?) page and type 1 in and see all the other part numbers that are direct replacements.  I can dream : )

Ah, different markets. Different voltages. DIdn't think of that : )

Yes that would be great wouldn't it :)

Dell keep their non-user serviceable parts catalogue very much to themselves and their partners so there's a bit of cheating involved!

eBay is actually not a bad source for the range of part numbers but don't rely entirely on it as sellers there sometimes get confused too!

There are a few large parts resellers who have the Dell catalogue linked to their online website database (eg http://www.powersourceonline.com/ (other retailers are available!)) so you can verify what each P/N relates to but a lot of it is simply getting good with Google!
