GF's laptop has been subjected a couple of times to being doused in water due to plumbing problems.
Each time we just pulled the battery and let it dry. Luckily it worked. Only recently did something finally go awry, and needed repair work. We spent $56 for a new MB on ebay and Dell happened to have awesome dissassembly guides for her laptop. Replaced the MB and it was all working fine. Only 1 screw left over after assembly. ----- Original Message ----- > I have a friend that managed to (blame someone else here) get coffee > dunked on the > keyboard of a year plus old laptop. > > The one correct answer is to get a new one.
