By non-genuine, I meant a real "no-name" brand. They have the same physical appearance and the unit made by the laptop manufacturer and probably even have the manufacturer's logo on them (legally or not). I can't comment on the Belkin unit you mention, but I would *hope* that a brand name like Belkin would be more careful than the cheap imitations. best of luck with it! cheers Stuart -- Stuart Prescott www.nanoNANOnano.net -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
