- the laptop doesn't turn ON on just the a/c adapter without the battery installed. I thought all laptops do that.

If i unplug the ac adapter and plug it back in, it shows that animation for a few more seconds again before going back to solid, non-animation icon. It is still saying "plugged in, charging"

Is this indicative of some problem with the motherboard power circuitry? The ac adapter is a snug fit on the laptop - doesn't wiggle, not loose.

Damn... I wish I had seen your reply just a bit sooner. I just shipped out the unit to Asus Service center. The laptop has 2 years warranty on it (just expired).
I already paid UPS and shipped the unit out... I really want to repair this because this is a 3d vision built in laptop (I know I can just buy a regular laptop and for 3D send HDMI out to another 120Hz 3D ready monitor and use the external USB nvidia emitter and 3D glasses but I prefer built-in).
Additionally I had almost 200 Steam games on my laptop so the hassle of reinstalling all those games is not worth it for me...

Too bad Asus isn't making any more 3D laptops.

So I got my laptop back from Asus after about 4 weeks in repair. The problem was some kind of burnout near the power input area. (odd because I have on a power strip with fuse and rarely move the laptop or the power).
They replaced those components.
I'm leaving this answer for others in case they have this problem. You would have to send the unit in to Asus to get it repaired.
