I'm seriously considering replacing my Windoze based Dell laptop with a MacBook. One of the things I do with my laptop is use it as a navigation device while driving my RV back and forth across the country. I have a 12- volt adapter that I plug into the 12-volt accessory socket to keep the laptop perking along for the 8 to 10 hours I'm on the road each day.
I see that Apple offers a product, Magsafe-Airline-Adapter, for powering the Macbook while flying but Apple warns against using this product in a car.
So, are there third-party 12-volt car power adapters for the Macbook?

Consider getting a small 12V to 117VAC converter, which will probably be somewhat less expensive. That'll run not only the Mac, but other useful items as well.
