Normally, you can't buy an adapter for one specific aircraft type, but rather the entire package -- you'll be able to find one at Future Shop or Best Buy (just ask a salesperson).
The aircraft end isn't the only problem, you also need to make sure the adapter tip for your specific model of notebook is also included. Just because the tip fits does not mean it is compatible, because the tip itself adjusts the voltage as well. Targus has two packages that look identical until you look closely and you'll find that there are actually slight but important differences in the tips. There is a card on the back of each package that lists all of the models supported.
