[QUOTE="T'Pring, post: 1652517, member: 222028"] Thanks for the replies. I tend to think you are [more] right. While I probably did coil it at some point, it was not more than a time or two because this laptop has never been outside my house. The cable generally just sits wherever it is [sprawled]. I do not leave it plugged in for extended periods of time thinking that the heat generated may be exacerbating the problem. In the pic it clearly [to me] shows the jacket is too long as it is basically overlapping itself -- as if it is growing. Maybe pulling off the mag-safe plug over the years has caused it, maybe not. While I may not have been the most careful at removing it -- I have definitely not abused it and keep it as straight as possible when plugged into the computer. May be I got a lemon, may be a design flaw -- Bottom line is I have to fork out for a new transformer. [/QUOTE]
