Car adapter for Lappy?

I will be traveling a bit this summer with my brother and would like some entertainment on the road. Is there any car adapters so you can plug the lappy into the cigarette holder?

and where i can pick one up at

There is, but for the same price, you can get a non-proprietary 120V AC adapter that will let you plug in anything you like in your car.

You may be able to get it cheaper elsewhere, but here is the link at Staples.

OR, go to a few Truck Stops, they have 300 watt inverters for $29.00 -$39.00. I just got one at a PILOT truck stop for $39.00. I run my color tv or my lappy but don't think I can run both at same time. I actualy did run them both for a few hours but that is why ( I think) I just had to buy another inverter coulple weeks ago.lol
