[QUOTE="chscag, post: 1713649, member: 46727"] Let the machine dry out for several days and then open it up if you can and wipe away any water that might remain. You didn't mention which year and model MacBook Air you have but you can go to the ifixit web site and look over the instructions for opening it up. If you're extremely lucky, no damage or shorts occurred. But yes, turning it on was a very bad idea. DO NOT pop out the keys as that may cause damage to the keyboard. Go to [url]www.ifixit.com[/url] and also read thru this entire thread if you get the time. Good luck. [/QUOTE]
