[QUOTE="Noels, post: 664837, member: 49942"] Rubbing alcohol evaporates quickly, so I suspect that once it evaporated your computer is as good as ever. If it's operating OK, it likely didn't harm your RAM or CPU and the HDD is on the other side of the box, so I'd say you're probably safe... But just in case, cross your your fingers :Smirk: BTW, If you're still in warranty, you might check the warranty terms and see what it says about liquid spills, then go from there on whether or not to contact Apple.
