    Anyone else having USB port issues (on both left and right ports) where it seem a bit loose - when plugged in the part that is connected to the laptop has room to wiggle, sideways, not up and down, but more like towards and away. Sometimes when I gently touch a memory stick that's plugged in the connection would be lost. This is my second motherboard and a new replacement would cost about 800 dollars (ouch).

    Second issue is the battery life - I can barely get 2 hours out of the laptop and at times after being on charger it wouldn't hold the full 100% charge, I've to discharge it a few times before getting up to 100%.

    Lemme know if the USB is fixable and if the battery is worth replacing.

    Thx!
