[QUOTE="iamjohnlacroix, post: 13395"] I just dumped about half a medium sized bottle of water on to of my sleeping (closed) powerbook g4 12" Water ran all over the top of the case and who knows where else...i got to it after a couple of minutes (I didn't notice) and then i picked it up to find out it had shut off. The power cord was still plugged in. It's about a month old and i have WAY too much work on it right now. I'm scared! I took out the battery, took off the memory cover and put it in front of a fan. I'm going to leave it there for several hours at least and then try to turn it on. I read a few stories about people having the same disaster and the powerbook still survived. Can anybody offer any advice? thanks john [/QUOTE]
