There is no indication on the computer itself. Several sources offering
PSs for this make/model all indicate that it takes 22V. Amps? Either
enough, or more than enough should do I guess. There's no indication,
but the adapters pictured are bigger than your typical wall wort. More
like a typical laptop adapter.

  Can you tell if the connector looks like a modern standard?

Yes, round hole single center pin. When I tried for fit my HP adapter
did not fit. It seemed that the hole was too small, and the pin was to
big. The polarity is a coin toss, with a bit of bias towards Pin
Positive simple because that seems to be more common.
