Yes, I'm an idiot. Now that's out of the way...
I spilled a sugary coffee on my MacBook Pro, mainly on the bottom keys of the keyboard. I pulled the power, held it upside down, cleaned it as best as I could. I did not remove the battery (I didn't know what the heck to do at the time).
I brought it into the Apple store, who told me they'd charge at least 350, to give me a new keyboard and to check the insides out for damage. (obviously not covered under warranty)
So, the thing is- it never stopped running, I have had no problems with it but the keys are sticky. Everything seems to be functioning ok. The only concern I have is the sound it makes when it "wakes up" from being in sleep mode- the "whirrrrr" seems a bit junky sounding to me. (I apologize for my lack of technical Mac lingo)
What I'm wondering is how much damage I could have done to it, given that it is running fine. Should I just have them take it apart and take a look it? (god knows I can't do that myself) or just leave it be b/c it's working fine other than some annoying sticky keys.
Thanks for your advice and wisdom...
