    Looks like my less than 2 year old S6120D may have hit the dust. The port where I plug in my power connector just snapped off and came out of the back of the computer. Has anybody ever seen this before? Can it be fixed? It looks like the little piece that broke off has little jagged metal pieces that obviously used to connect to the mobo. Am I out of luck?

    It might be just a matter of soldering it back on. If you are handy with such things you might be able to do it yourself. Otherwise a notebook repair shop would be able to do it, this is not a rare thing for notebooks of different brands.
