Watch the following (It's a Mac vs. PC Commercial based on Power cords)
Even though this commercial is over exaggerated, accidents like this do happen, it has even happened to me before, but with a mac power cord so nothing happened to me. The different between the Apple and PC power cord:
Apple: Magnetically pops in and out of the socket
PC: Stays securely plugged into the socket.
If someone trips over a PC power cord, then they are most likely to fall over and hurt themselves. Because the power cord is so securely plugged into the laptop then there is a higher risk of someone getting hurt when they trip over the cord. The laptop may even slide of the desk and on to the floor.
If someone trips over a Mac power cord, then they most likely won't fall over because of the magnetic connection between the cord and the socket. The cord would just pop right out if someone was to trip over it. Some people may think that it is silly to have a power cord that can pop out really easily, but if you directly pull out an apple power cord, it does not come out that easily. If you angle the power cord to come out of the socket, then it is easier to pull out.
Because the Apple power cord magnetically pops in and out of the socket, there would be less safety issues, and not many people would get hurt from tripping over an Apple power cord.
