    if your coffee didn't have cream/sugar in it...might want to un-plug it and let it dry out for a few days...it might come back to life. (can't remove the battery can you?)
    The joy of life comes from our encounters with new experiences, and hence there is no greater joy than to have an endlessly changing horizon, for each day to have a new and different sun.

    Remember all those day off you took not long ago? ;) that money could've helped you to buy a new mac :P

    Sorry to hear that, is a pain in the ass when expenses come out of nowhere :(

    Probably won't work for coffe but my wife had her Blackberry in the pool for 20 min before she realized it was in her bathing suit. The screen looked like a fishbowl half full of water. She took the battery out and put it in a bag of rice for 2 days and miraculously it worked again.

    know that silica stuff that comes in a tub and you put it in the basement to soak up humidity?
    or the same sort of stuff you dry flowers with?
    SILICA (i think that's what its called)
    take the battery out
    get a rubbermaid tub w a lid
    put the whole shebang inside
    pour lots of the silica over
    close tight
    leave for a few days
    oughtta do the trick

    hope there was nothing sticky (milk, creamer, sugar)

    good luck
    peace,

    I would remove the battery, hold the power in to drain any power from the boards, take it apart, wash the boards off and let it dry before you put it back together and power it on.


    You've got nothing to lose.

    Not that this would help you now, but food for thought in the future...I insured mine through a personal articles policy with my insurance agent. It costs nearly nothing and if something like that happens I'm covered for a replacement/repairs.
