oh yeah, it is real sturdy. the part that makes it tilt and swivel is steel!!

I did track down a power adapter on ebay.co.uk. Please, nobody bid on it!! I need that. It's £10.00 shipped, which by today's standards is $19.852. That is CHEAPER than the 3rd party/custom made ones on the US ebay. And this one is a genuine apple part.

wish me luck.
