[QUOTE="biondi, post: 1568263, member: 320983"] Hi, I knocked over a half cup of water on top of my 15" macbook pro retina while it was closed, and in sleep mode. I immediately ran and got a towel, and dried the exterior. I opened it, and the keyboard was dry. I then quickly shut it down, and put it upside down in a pan of rice. I saw that a small amount of water got into the 3 little air vents on the bottom right side of the machine. My question is, should I leave it upside down in the rice, or turn it right side up? I thought it should be upside down based off of what I read in these forums, but logically, if it were right side up, wouldn't the water drain out? This computer is brand new, literally like a month old. Please help! [/QUOTE]
