From what I've experienced there is a standard plug.  The wire Matusiak 
is speaking of has the standard plug.  I used it two nights ago on a 
flight to Vegas.  The Macbook Pro demands more power than the plane will 
give if you want to charge and use the laptop at the same time but its 
enough to either use the computer or charge the battery while you 
sleep.  It kinda pissed me off to have to pay so much for a simple wire 
but it was nice to be able to work in the air.
