HDMI port is first thing to die on last two laptops. Thanks to thunderbolt, I didn't have to junk the more recent laptop, but I do need a dongle for HDMI which is mildly infuriating.

Yeah, HDMI is a notoriously failure prone connector I've found. I avoid it if I can, though I don't have any use for it on my laptop. My Thinkpad has one, could be dead I suppose since I never use it :P
