Most physical damage to laptops can be prevented: The first thing you should never do: Never walk around with your laptop ac adaptor plugged in. What we see happen is the cord will get wrapped around something while you’re walking away, the cord gets yanked out of the receptacle which will either dismount the receptacle from the cradle that holds it in place. Sometimes it will actually break the cradle. We can fix that most the the time with some creative engineering however sometimes in worse case scenarios the entire bottom of the laptop will have to be replaced. So never carry the machine with the power adaptor plugged in.
We also see lots of spills in laptops. The best thing to do if you’re not using the unit is to close the lid, even if you do spill on it your chances of not completely ruining the machine is greatly diminished.
