[QUOTE="Ttaylor394, post: 1575193, member: 192394"] I've never spilled anything but H20 on my MBP.. one time i hit my old Inspiron with a lacrosse ball.. but generally speaking-what you've done & are planning on doing is the accepted steps. It is also generally accepted that things that leave residue (anything but water.. and some ppl will say water will leave residue) never get fully cleaned off. You just wont be able to get to everything with a cue tip and the alcohol. Some ppl think compressed air is bad since that may move whats in there further into a deep dark crevasse. What you should do is save up some money and buy a new computer, it probably wont work anymore. I hope you reply and say otherwise, but it appears that you have the plastic white Mac Book. So the newest it may be is '09 or '10 if you bought it refurb. Good luck.. report back and prove me wrong. [/QUOTE]
