Just a quick FYI for all you HP/Compaq laptop users. The power cord that came with some 2010-2012 models has been recalled. I believe this includes some Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge Probook models. Apparently the cord poses a risk of fire.
Fill out a form on HP's site to see if your model qualifies for a replacement part.
Potentially affected power cords can be identified by a molded mark on the adapter end of the power cord. The molded mark will be “LS-15”. Not all power cords with the “LS-15” molded mark are affected.
