Hi all,
Not sure if I'm weird or if any of you have ran into this but, I was battling a super slow computer that I originally thought was due to a virus, malware, etc. I wore out the cord (I had to bend it off and on to get the charge light to come on) I ran anti-virus scans, defraged my hard drive, cleared cookies, cleaned up my desk top, etc. and nothing seemed to help.
I broke down and got a new cord because is got almost unusable and just like flipping a switch my slow lap-top problem was solved.
I guess the bad cord was probably making my working voltage low and in hind site I can see where this could cause a computer to slow down it's processor, etc.
Just thought I'd pass that on, in case any of you are challenged like me.
Jason
