[QUOTE="Pneutrix, post: 1425840, member: 231991"] [b]Just an update from my post earlier[/b] Back on January 5th, I posted in this thread about how I idiotically spilled an entire glass of water on my 2010 Macbook Pro. Well, it's been six months and my laptop still shows no signs of long-term damage (I use it daily for CG production and am typing on it now). I'm still incredibly amazed my laptop survived all that water...I am never doubting Apple hardware again. Tips from an idiot-spill survivalist: If you want to increase your computer's chances of making it through, [B]do not[/B] turn your machine back on until you are [B]absolutely[/B] sure it is completely dry. I know it can be anxious, but have a little patience––you might save yourself an expensive logic board replacement. [/QUOTE]
