[QUOTE="pigoo3, post: 1290066, member: 56379"] It only takes one drop in the wrong place to "fry" a computer!:( The less quantity of liquid that is spilled is better...but it doesn't take much at all to cause problems. Believe me it had nothing to do with how fast you dumped the computer or got paper-towels!!! The damage liquid does to a powered on computer (if the liquid comes in contact with a sensitive area)...is measured in nano or pico seconds. In case you don't know...this is a picosecond: [b]0.000000000001 seconds[/b]...BELIEVE me...you can't react that quickly!!!;) I wouldn't move it...it could cause any water in it to move around. But eventually you need to disassemble it to dry it out properly. - Nick [/QUOTE]
