Hi folks, Thanks for your responses about my spill issue. Paul was right, I could've probably saved the Tibook if I'd been quick about removing the battery, my instincts were incorrect.
Just in case you want follow-up info, the tech from Tekserve called back today. He did two severe alcohol washes on it, and still no response (it won't start at all) so he's replacing the logic board. They can charge only about $530 for the board, because they send my ruined one to Apple in some sort of parts exchange. I asked him (Marty, very nice guy for anyone in NYC) if, as long as he's replacing my whole logic board, I could upgrade and get a faster processor, better graphics, etc. He said that's theoretically possible, but then they can't do the part switch with Apple and it would cost much more. Live and learn, eh? -Matthew -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
