Has anyone else had this problem, I woke up this morning to find my battery housing has deformed and I am wondering if this will be a warranty thing as my computer is only two years old.

I haven't had it happen to me, but I know of others who have. That is a defect in the battery. Certain MacBook and MacBook Pro models are subject to a warranty extension due to manufacturers defects. Contact Apple for a replacement.

Liquid and computers don't mix. It might seem simple, but we see an incredible amount of people post here about spills. Keep drinks and other liquids away from your expensive electronics!
