D shaped AC adapters work with your thinkpads..
round barrel type work with newer thinkpads..
701, 365, 560, 770, 570,600, T&A series and X and SOME i series..
some i series want 19VDC which the other, more pleantiful round barrel type,
don't supply..
(they are 16VDC)
batteries are much more specific, especially for those two machines you
have..
probably NiCAD for the 360 and NiMH for the 755CE..
on ebay you must be wary of new sellers and sending cash to bulgaria.. or is
that vulgaria..
beyond that caveat, you're on your own.. :-)
the last time i evaluated ebay, the flame war flames singed the surface of
the moon..
Cordially, :-)
