Title: MagSafe power adapter connector
Post by: jgospodaric on October 27, 2015, 09:40:30 AM
Hi,

what you think about MagSage power adapter connector? I think that this will can be very useful in usage when you have to connect your power adapter and be safe that someone will not pull the whole laptop by accidentally pulling cord by hand, foot or something else :D.

I agree!

I guess this will depend on the laptop case we will be using

Considering that's copyrighted, this would probably be a better / more legal option.

I think the PowerPC notebook will have a very long battery life ;-)
So the MagSafe connector would be nice to have but not a must have :-)
Is the price the same as a ordinary connector?

The Magsafe connector has been patented by Apple. And I don't think they'll license it...
