Cameron and all Commodore "Gurus". I posted this before with no response.
I have a nice little Commodore Laptop for which I don't have a power supply
adaptor. C386SX-LT "made in Japan" "Funkenstort n. Vfg 1046/84".
 I would suspect it was put out by Commodore Germany.
 The only reference I've been able to find is for a battery for it. It's 16 v.
 The AC adaptor port is an female 8-pin mini-din like the Mac ones. Anyone
have any info as to the pinout so I could make a plug or adaptor for it ?
