Hi Ben, All my PB's has had the "schuko" grounded plug (plug with two round pins and grounding on the sides). A lot of other things (like laptops) does not have the grounding though, but all Power Book cables has had it. I don't know how my new iBook's plug is though. It came with the white square power supply that looks just like my Airport Express Base, but the guy I bought it from had lost the plug. He preferred a longer cord, so he used a standard power cord. Neat how they now use a standard power cord with the small standard plug so you can just buy any power cord at places like the Radio Shack... Do you know if you can buy the plug for the white adapter, without buying a whole new adapter?
My iBook is still in the "hospital", poor thing. Checked status on it today though, and it said they planned to finish it tomorrow. Then they'll probably use a few days to get it here. I can't wait to get it back, I really hate using this PC. Only one good thing about it, I have got a bit more used to the awful little rubber pointing device it has...

Most powerbooks sold in the EU have the German "schuko" plug with the ground... Ben -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
