I've really started to tire of this problem, though I understand that short of rewiring the plane there is nothing NW can do. I bought a lower watt power supply and fried a nice Lenovo (there isnt a sub-75w "official" power supply for my model and my IT guys say that the 3rd party adapter I bought was the cause of the demise of this computer). On my recent DEL-SEA flight I remembered too late about the defibrulator plug on the wall next to 3A (with no circuit breaker prblems). That's going to be my solution, which sucks because I prefer row 1.
