[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1444000, member: 46727"] Nail polish remover is extremely volatile as it contains a goodly amount of lacquer thinner. Lacquer thinner can eat its way through plastics and damage circuit boards. It depends on how much of it flowed onto the logic board which sits beneath the keyboard. Damage can certainly show up later on. The price he's charging for the keyboard replacement and battery likely includes his labor which is why the cost is $500. If it were me, I would sell the machine as is on eBay or wherever and use the money from the sale to buy a new machine. [/QUOTE]
