In fact, it failed and I dropped my PowerBook, breaking a foot. Thank God only the foot! I have a Kensington, which, while not particularly pretty, seems pretty solid. They now have a smaller model which I haven't seen, but is apparently just big enough for the PowerBook itself, then the model I have which also holds ext. floppy and batteries, etc. and then a big briefcase.
