Hi!
At work, I got new Mac Mini (2.3 Ghz Intel Core 5; 4 GB of RAM) last week. I noticed its power cable is loose since I move it around it connect/disconnect cables in its rear sometimes. I don't seem to be alone online like in http://forums.macrumors.com/archive/index.php/t-668932.html ... Is there a fix for this like a better power cable?
Thank you in advance. :)

I'd get Apple to replace it. Even out of warranty, it could be argued that it's a fire / health hazard and they should replace it regardless.

Do I have to mail it back to Apple to replace it or can I ask Apple to send me another power cable? It was mail ordered for work/the office.

I doubt very much the CABLE is the problem.

Take it to the nearest Apple Store. If there isn't one, you'll have to go through your IT department since they ordered it and it would be under their name/company for warrantee info.
