Hi,
Ethernet cable is stuck in the LAN port of my laptop.
It is not coming out whether I pull/push it.
I plugged it for the first time in my brand new laptop and don't want to brake it.
Please help and suggest the solutions.
Should I take my laptop to hp service center.
Please reply soon as I cannot travel with hangging cable.
HELP!!!

You have got to be kidding! Use a screw driver. I've never been more infuriated with a new laptop. What a piece of crap if they can't design it better than this. There is no excuse for this. I've never seen a design like this that locks the cable in without any way of getting it back out. I was reluctant to by an HP in the first place because the last time it was crippled with ad/bloat ware that is next to impossible to get rid of without wiping the system and reloading. Now I find I need to still wipe and reload but on top of that there is only one display port and a crappy ethernet port.
