how to find where to buy computer fan

[BobLewiston]

I need to replace a small (@ 44 millimeter or 1.75 inch) fan in my computer, but I can't find the fan on the internet. It's made by Aopen (yes, I tried their website). For some reason, it says "sleeve bearing" on the fan. (I don't know why, it's a fan, not a sleeve bearing.) Of course, it runs on 12 DC volts.

Does anyone know how I can find this fan?

You should be able to get one anywhere I think even staples sells cooling fans.

Dont get too hooked up on the "sleeve Bearing" markings as this is the type of mechanism used for rotation, other variations include "brushless" and "ball bearing". You should be able to get a replacement from here http://www.maplin.co.uk/searchtemplate.asp?criteria=40mm%20cooling%20fans%202%20pin%20lead or contact me and I could order you one.
