you DEFINITELY need an AC adapter which supplies a DC current, as the PC fans are probably 12V DC, and a cord cut off of a lamp will supply you the wall's 110Volt AC current. Any 12V power supply to any electronic item should do the trick. You have an old cisco network bridge or something you're no longer using? I have a whole drawer full of the things at work here.

be out of work and their dreams would be shattered. Then I say to myself,
"It is better that I drink this beer and let their dreams come true than
be selfish and worry about my liver."
