I would give Apple a ring, but I suspect that you would qualify for a free upgrade. Apple treats the refurbs just like any new machine for the most part. Typically the only difference is the box it ships in.
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!

I'm pretty sure you would qualify for the free upgrade as long as you fall within their time frame.
