I was in the middle of using the 15-inch MacBook Pro Core Duo which I bought back in 2006 when I noticed the screen was automatically dimmed. There was no change in the ambient lighting. I noticed the MagSafe connector was no longer lit-up then I heard a loud popping noise coming from the power adapter. I immediately unplugged and inspected the power adapter. I could smell a burning electric component coming from the power adapter. I guess I&#8217;d have to head out and get a replacement in the morning. It would be <a href=\"http:\/\/store.apple.com\/us\/product\/MC556LL\/A\" target=\"_blank\">$80 plus sales tax at the Apple Store<\/a>. I could also buy the <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.com\/dp\/B003H05UXM\/?tag=37prime-20\" target=\"_blank\">85-Watt MagSafe Power Adapter from Amazon<\/a> and have it delivered on Friday. Either way, I&#8217;d have to spend the money.
