I use my apple cinema display with my macbook everyday, and I was wondering how the constant plugging/unplugging of the USB and firewire cables/ports will affect the life of the ports. I'm not rough with the cables, and I connect the ports softly and slowly. I have applecare, but I really would like to minimize the amount of service this computer will need as it needs to get me through college.
Have any of you guys worn out a firewire or USB port as a result of repeatedly connecting devices?
