I fell asleep listening to music in headphones with my computer on my bed, and I guess at some point I rolled over and knocked it onto the floor.
I can't plug anything into the headphone jack the way it is now. Is there anywhere I can take/send my laptop where it can be fixed? Or do I need to find a USB audio adapter to use instead?

Personally, I'd try taking the case apart and attempt bending it back into shape myself. Of course, don't know if the board has been damaged and the port is no longer working.

Head to ifixit.com for directions on taking it apart if you decide to try it yourself.
