I like to fancy myself as a competent, thrifty fellow - but the reality is, I'm really clumsy and never had much luck with soldering.

I'm in a similar pickle now. I've been bumming a laptop charger from a roommate (same model required by school) ever since mine stopped. I know roughly where the problem is - a weak connection on the DC end of the adapter - I must have been too rough with it going in and out of my bookbag. A new one costs quite a bit of money around here, and online options aren't much cheaper - so I'll be cracking it open tomorrow and seeing if I can indeed solder something back together.
