PowerBook replacement feet

One of the feet fell off my 12" PowerBook. I was getting really upset w/ it b/c I thought that the chasis was bent. I'm glad to lear its just a missing foot. Does anyone know the part number for these? I looked through support.apple.com but didn't find anything.
thanks!

I'd go to eBay for this one. You can usually get a set of feet for just a couple bucks.

AppleCare

If your AppleCare is still effective, you can get them free. Just call Apple's support number.

yeah call applecare, since you are still under applecare. if you still have the foot just use superglue and put it back on.

I lost my last foot about a week ago...

I've heard you can pop into an apple store and they will hook you up with some more feet though...

On the TiBook, those feet are critical for cooling air under the machine - which makes it surprising that they're so easily lost. I don't think that's the case with the AlBooks, tho.
