Being a stereotypical Mac user, I never look at the female end, but now that you bring it to my attention, I should probably check to see if it's any different from the one on the back of my G5.

A long time ago during my life as a miserable college student I zotted about 20 students. The setting; I was working into the early morning at the computer lab. I was fading in and out of consciousness. (no, not what you think, I was an engineer and this, unfortunately, was due to lack of sleep)I shook my head a few times, leaned back in the chair, and stretched my arms back. I then straightened my legs out to give them a good stretch when, ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZzzzzzzzzzz
All the computers in the lab went down. I hit some power box on the floor with my toes and cut the power. I knew it was my fault but I just got up saying, "Hey! who did that!" and then stealthily made my escape. At least I think I was stealthy. I was pretty groggy back then.
