I'm on vacation right now and need to get work done. What are the chances that I go whine to the Apple store and they give me a replacement cable?

85W charger is so expensive (unless I settle for a non Apple one).

If it's work, seems like it's a business expense/write off getting a new one. I don't see the problem.

Depends on how it broke, how old it is, and all that. If it is the old style with the white plastic T connector, that has frayed on either end, they (should) replace it for free. If it is the new metal L shape connector... they most likely won't. But depending on how far away the Apple store is, how much of a hassle is it?
