[QUOTE="cwa107, post: 452281, member: 24098"] Since the majority of the spill collected toward the bottom of the keyboard, chances are the only damage was to the hard drive, superdrive, and possibly the bluetooth adapter (I believe that's sort of wedged in near the hard drive, as I recall). I would definitely keep the battery out of it and do not expose it to power for at least a few days (maybe even a week). If in the event something like this were to happen again, the best thing to do is to IMMEDIATELY remove ALL power (including the battery), to prevent a short. Keep the power removed until you are certain any traces of liquid have dried. [/QUOTE]
