“…love in deed and truth.”

So my computer requires this thing called an AC adapter cord when the battery wants to be recharged.  Several months ago, sometime last year my laptop fell on the ground on its side and the adapter cord took a hit and prevented serious damage for the laptop.

In the process though the part where it plugs into the computer smashed and was forced in a sense to give its life.  So anyway, I had school to do so I needed to get a new adapter cord right away since my battery would only last a couple hours.  I found what I thought was a decent replacement only to find out when it got there it would not fit.  And I had even paid for fast shipping.  So I send it back and get the right one.  This one worked until it started coming apart like a month after I got it.  Talk about poor performance.  Anyway, I got a replacement and that one has lasted up until now.

I noticed it’s illness about a month or so ago when the little adapter box basically came apart so I had to tape it to keep it together.  Then the wires under the rubber protection started protruding but still it worked so I kept it.  Well, today it started crackling and fizzing and essentially demanding that it be put to rest so that’s what happened.   I don’t really blame the adapter for being so unreliable when my first adapter had lasted for a year and probably would have lasted much longer if it hadn’t made the sacrifice that it did, but I blame the shoddy manufacturers.  I’m getting an official HP replacement this time where I didn’t last time, so they better make a cord that can live up to the standard of my first valiant cord.
