I used to get such stuff from PT Computer Professionals in Osborne
Park.  They are now MIA, but their warranty support and servicing has
been taken over by Commander.  I have direct phone numbers at work as
you won't find them on the website, they are in Burswood.  I'll post
back the details once I'm back at work on Monday.

The last quoted price I have is from May:

	PA3048E-1ACA - AC ADAPTOR 15V 4 AMP - $65.00 ex GST

I think you'll find that MUCH cheaper that the generic ones that Targus
et al. make.

Otherwise, TANG in Osborne Park can get Toshiba stuff quickly.
