We've lost both an Acer laptop and a WallStreet over the last two years due to soft drink spills. I've also salvaged every single external keyboard that someone has spilled on by unplugging it, rinsing it under water, and letting it dry overnight. No such luck with laptops, though. Good advice. Ditto for getting crumbs from your cookies inside the keyboard. -- Dan Knight, president, Cobweb Publishing, Inc. <http://cobwebpublishing.com> <http://lowendmac.com> <http://digital-views.com> <http://digigraphica.com> <http://lowendpc.com> <http://reformed.net> Mediocrity thrives on standardization. -- G-Books is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
