    Solo Central Nevada Trip

    Thanks, I found that site a while ago and the information is not bad. Like it says, Longstreet was known by both Jack and John. Most information on Longstreet is as Jack Longstreet.

    05+ Factory Inverter

    In short - yes. The laptop, like a desktop, uses a switching power supply which allows it to run a poor power grid. So your laptops power supply does not care if it is a sine wave or not as long as it is AC.
