    Is anyone else having problems with their power adapter for the ASUS G53/G73 series?

    The pin inside the jack has come out 3 times now, and one time I even sent it to ASUS to be repaired, and it came out within a week.

    I love this laptop, but I'm about to sell it on E-bay if I can't get the power adapter to stop breaking.

    Before you do that, try getting a right angle adapter for $5. It takes the stress off the jack itself.
