Yes, I recently found the mini power plug I use on my 2300c brick (almost like
plugging the brick directly into the outlet) to be detriment here in the good ol'
USA. The plug was under a shelf on a built-in desk and the way the plug was turned
prevented my brick from fitting in the space and plugging in. Fortunately they had
a spare computer power cord in the office.
The answer is to have dual reels inside the package, so that you can ratchet out
the power cord from one side and the notebook cord on the other. When retracted
the plugs both fit snugly into opposite sides of the center wheel (the Apple would
have to be offset, but oh well). The power cord could also be a female type
connection thereby allowing any type of mini plug adapter to be inserted and
allowing each individual country to packaging the proper adapter respectively.
