Hi,
I proudly bought a new powerbook g4 1,67Mhz a couple of days ago and
I allready have a adapter problem (the adapter that came with the
PBook).
While using and loading it at the same time yesterday, the light just
suddenly went of and the adapter stopped loading. I have tried other
sockets and leaving the adapter out for a while but nothing.
When I just plugged it in the light of the plug flickered for a few
seconds but is dead again.
Now I am sitting here with my brandnew Powerbook with an empty
battery and a dodgy adapter!!!!
WHAT THE F... ??? :?

It is under warranty. Call Apple tech support, or take it back where you
bought it and get a new one.
Maybe the problem is in the adapter, and maybe it is in the computer.
No manufacturing process is 100% free of defects. You got a lemon.
Better to discover it now than later.

What did Apple say when you reported the problem to them?

I think I can safely say that the AC adapter is faulty.
Just to check have you tried a different power lead, from the power
socket to the adapter.
Since it is under warranty, they should replace the adapter. No
questions asked!!!!
