don't know if this would do the trick but it's the same fitting as the power lead for my vostro 1500. just change the power lead that runs to the transformer if it's the business power supply.
click

europe uses the same voltage as us (in all countries i think, check first)

sooo, i'm sure she could find someone to cut the plug off and fit a new plug

Difficult to say with the small pic, but that looks like an american plug with 2 flat and one round earth pin

Most European plugs are like this -

ie the earth pin is actually on the socket, not the plug.

Saying that, I found in Moscow that some hotels used old UK 15A and 5A round pin fittings
