Repair a Broken Apple AC Adapter and Save Yourself Some Cash [DIY]

Repair a Broken Apple AC Adapter and Save Yourself Some CashIf you don't properly coil your MacBook's power cord, it can fray to the point of unusability. Instead of buying a new one, you can replace the cord yourself for just a few bucks.

This project isn't for the faint of heart, but if you'd rather not spend another $50 on an A/C cable and you know how to solder, you can get that MagSafe adapter up and running again for much less.
