Hi There
I use a retina MacBook Pro at University on a daily basis. For the last 3 months, I've been suffering from the relatively well documented issue where the screen connected via HDMI may flicker off an on.
What I've noticied this morning is that since Wednesday, this damage has occurred around the HDMI port. Notice, the ruckeling on top and the black chips around the port. Since it's stayed on a clear desk for almost all of that time, with one trip out in laptop backpack where it didn't come out, I just can't think the damage was done physically as there was no opportunity when that side of the laptop would come into contact with anything hard. Last night I was rendering a very large video which got my computer very hot for about 20 minutes in iMovie. Is it possible that the heat generated from the CPU could have caused this ruckeling or that anything else caused the damage?
Thanks
