Title: Absolutely, positively, do not buy this cable!!
Review: Ok, I'm going to cut to the chase: this cable has a bad odor problem. The previous reviewers of this item were not joking.It's a strong, synthetic smell, and I guess vapor-like. I tried storing them in a desk drawer at work, and upon opening it at a later date, the smell poured right out. I could still smell it at a distance when I connected it to a work laptop.Cleaning it with alcohol does nothing.Worst yet, I was dumb enough to sniff it up close to check if it still had the smell. Bad mistake. I ended up with a headache pretty quickly afterwards after taking a whiff of it.So, even if the cable works, it's fair enough to say that it's not worth saving the money to get headaches or goodness knows what deleterious health effects one might incur from whatever is emanating from the cable. Buy something else. Just not this cable.
