I have seen generic adapters for as little as £25 on the net can anyone advise me whether this would be wise move or whether to bite the bullet & buy Sony, any advice would be gratefully received!

It was basically a flaw in the design of the power adapter and it kept on falling apart, so we ended up wedging it in there and trying to move the laptop as little as possible.

I bought a PSU for my monitor from them, excellent service.

Companies always come the "We recommend only genuine "Blahdieblah" accessories to be used with "Blahdieblah" appliances/devices." Some will even go as far as voiding any warranty if they find out you haven't taken that advice.
A while ago I was looking for a Bluetooth dongle to fit my printer. I looked at the "recommended" dongle and was shocked to see they wanted between £50 - £70 for the thing. Was pleasantly surprised to find that my £5 bargain bucket dongle did the trick.

Unfortunately the same can be said about most of the multi-nationals, my motto now is if you want a decent service stick to the small independent retailer, the big boys aren't always selling at the best price & personally I'd rather pay a tad more & get a decent service.
Excuse me while I jump off my soap box :D!!!!!
