Macintosh laptops have a power/ charge cord which attaches magnetically. If the cord is accidentally pulled, the cable detaches easily without causing the laptop to fall off the desk. This reduces the risk of trip injuries, as well as preventing damage to the laptop.

Now, ChargeSAFE provides a mechanical equivalent for non-Apple laptops.
