No the power supplies for all C600 series is 75 watts and are the same. My
C600 ran fine in a C/Dock II Expansion just fine with 75 watts. But now, when
you order a dock with your C640, you get the exact same dock (or port rep) with
a 90 watt power supply to power both your dock and the PC, instead of the
standard 75 watt. When you use the 75 watt one that comes with the laptop,
there's not enough juice for the dock and the 1.6Ghz power of the laptop. It
knocks it down to 1.2Ghz. So, I'm using the same dock as I got when I ordered
my C600, but now Im in need of a 90 watt power supply for it. Was hoping
someone in town would be cheaper than buying directly from Dell. Cant find one
(90 watt power supply) on eBay.
