To add to Josh B's answer -
Finally, there's your standard electrical chains in most shopping centres and strips which should also have what you want, probably a bit more expensive though. The main ones are Fortress and Broadway. If in doubt, you can always try Mong Kok, Sai Yeung Choi Street (Mong Kok Station, Exit E2) - these stores have practically every second shopfront on that strip. That's also a big tourist area, so the language barrier may be a bit easier.
One last thing - all the best to you for remembering which place has what at what price. There's nothing dodgy going on (well, not that I found), but it is a crazy mind game trying to remember where each store is, especially when they all pretty much look the same, and the centres aren't exactly laid out in the most logical manner.

You might be able to pick one up at the airport or if you jump a train to the IFC mall it would be strange if you couldnt find one quickly inside there.
I'm a Mac person so I usually visit the Apple store in the IFC mall (Hong Kong MTR). In fact sometimes when I need to buy a new laptop I actually look for stopover flights in hong kong when I can jump on the MTR to Hong Kong from the airport, buy stuff and jump back on the train to the airport.
You can get All apple products for about 40% cheaper than in Europe and if it's from the Apple Store it has world wide warranty so you can return or replace in any Apple store.
Otherwise I'd say Wan Chai, Central/HK, and the shore side on Kowloon are best.
As mentioned, do try to go to a store which will give global warranty as this way you get the best price and the best security for your purchase.

Where will you be...? If you are on Hong Kong island then Wan Chai Computer Center is great. On the Kowloon side there is Mong Gok Computer Center but I have never been there. Both will have power adapters. The Computer Centers can be intimidating to non-technical people but I always found the people in WCCC helpful and honest.
