This Compaq CQ-50 (CQ60, CQ70) came in after being dropped on the dc jack. It seemed a little loose but that can be normal for a laptop that uses a cable style dc jack that plugs into the motherboard instead of being soldered directly on.
Unfortunately the cheapest I can get the jack for is $40 and that's how much extra the overall cost is. The laptops I fix for $65 I get the parts for $1-$5.
It's similar in design to the dv6000 which is the previous generation laptop.
The jack itself is similar to the dc jacks dell uses and the ac adapter tip looks identical.
During the fall the ac adapter was also broken and needed to be replaced.
