Does anybody in the Chicago area know where I can get a power cord for a clamshell iBook ASAP??

(Don't tell me to look online--I don't have that much battery time left! Nor do I have two days to wait for it to come in the mail.)

ETA: OK, it still works if I hold it at a certain angle. Got it taped down, so it's recharging. Grrrr. Still need new one ASAP! Why is everything I own rubbish? --Ron Weasley.

ETA2: Just ordered one over the phone from some guy in Michigan whose site I found at Low End Mac, THE go-to site for us junkyard apples. Cross fingers my current one doesn't die before it gets here, because if it does, I am up SHIT CREEK.

I just did a quick Google for "apple resellers chicago" and it looks like there's a place in Evanston that might be of some use, but the customer reviews make it sound kinda fail.

Craigslist might be helpful or one of the local Mac Users Groups. I am sending good vibes to your charger to hold on until you can acquire a spare!

Yeah, those customer reviews definitely put me off my feed. :( I think I've got a temporary solution at least, and said dude in Michigan said I should have the new one within a couple days so...all is not lost.
