[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1465429, member: 46727"] Usually a serious spill destroys the keyboard and logic board beneath it. Which means your Mac is dead in the water. However, most spills do not destroy the hard drive which is protected somewhat. Open up the machine and remove the hard drive. Place the hard drive in an external USB SATA carrier. Then attach it to another Mac and copy your data from it. [/QUOTE]
