    Hey guys - just as the topic says - I've been noticing that the left single USB port somewhat is loose - maybe it was like this in the beginning and I just never noticed it - It has no problem holding a USB connection - I can plug in any USB device and it will hold it securely - its just that it seems that when I grasp the USB connector to remove it, I can wriggle it up and down. I can't do the same with the two USB ports on the right. I am just asking those of you with T60s out there is this the same? I can't return it now, but I just hope it isn't something to be worried about... I dont really plug many USB devices into my laptop - just my Antec notebook cooler / Flash drive from time to time...

    YES DUDE!!! Thats exactly what I was wondering about. My left USB port also wriggles up and down and makes small crunching noises when I do it. My left USB port also works perfectly fine without any problems whatsoever. I think it may be normal...?

    I guess it is - yeah mine makes these weird metal "crunching" noises as well when I wriggle it up and down. Oh well... I guess I just have to deal with it and be gentle with it - but then again I am always gentle with my laptop - I'd take a bullet for my T60... or WOULD i? ;|
