Power jack break.
Me fix.
Open laptop.
Close laptop. Oops, broke cable.

Cable connects the power button panel to the main board. I can't turn my laptop on anymore.

The Link to photo bucket slideshow should be visually explanatory. You can see the size of the cable proportion to its background.

What is the name of this cable?
Is it a specific part for this Gateway?
What are the odds of me finding it?
Suggestions on where to shop?

if you know of a specialty computer shop close to you, either take the notebook there or show them the pictures and they might be able to help you find what you need. I've seen ribbon cables like it, but I don't know what it's called.
