For those unaware, my laptop is greater than 3 years old at this point.

There was a defect discovered later for the particular model - basically the video chip slowly works its way loose, eventually requiring the motherboard to be replaced (and that's only worth doing if the repair is covered by warantee). I've had two of those failures in the 3 years that I owned the laptop thus far, and the latter of those was over a year ago now I think.
