hi there...
Not sure how comfortable are you with doing this ......
if the PLUGS are " TYPE I " as shown in this link below.......
http://users.telenet.be/worldstandards/ ... tm#plugs_c
SInce most of the IBM Power Adaptor's are ALREADY 110-240volts capable...Would suggest to do this ,,,,,,,,,,(this is what I do when in Rio etc Argentina).....
I bend the plugs (the metal parts at the end of (current usa plugs) to an angle that fits the TYPE I sicket - just do tha gently and slowly!
It works nicely an never has ever had a problems for my laptop(s)
BUT i would get your sister to take the 'plug' of the cord to any electrical store and they would be able to give her a "P18" cord that would plug straight back where the other 'use cord' came out off ...
Cheers..

AC cord to use in Argentina
Basically all your sister would need is a plug adapter that can be bought locally. I don’t think it should cost more than $1.00.
They’re also available online and prices vary wildly:
http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/ASIN/ ... us-3ads-20
http://www.amazon.com/Adapter-Plug-Euro ... B000BMFHLE
Hope that helps.

Thank you I order a adapter.

And yes maybe there the plug if even cheaper I only want for her to plug and play.
