Looking for a laptop power supply.

I picked up a free laptop the other day (one free item with purchase from
Computer Swap & Shop), a DELL 320N+ 386sx-20Mhz (with 387 math
coprocessor installed), 8MB RAM, 60MB hard drive, built-in floppy,
external ports (mini-DIN mouse & keyboard, serial, parallel, VGA, all
behind a sliding cover), 640x480 monochrome VGA LCD screen (up to
1024x768 on external VGA monitor).

Naturally, it was free because the battery is dead and the power supply
is missing.  I can get a power supply for $75, but having $75 in
disposable income isn't going to happen for a long time.

So I'm looking for a power supply which is very similar to the laptop
power supply.

These are the specs I'm looking for, so poke through your closet of
computer parts (you do have one, right?) and see if you can find a
similar power supply (remember, the laptop was free).

Input current: 115v at 50 Hz
Output voltage: 12V, 2.0 A peak
Minimum load: 83 mA
