a gin and tonic all over the left side of my laptop.

first reaction was to push all the liquid off of it, then i shut it off and unplugged everything. then i dried it off with paper towels, took the battery out and got a hair dryer.

held that on the thing for a while on high and cool.

i just turned it back on and everything works fine.

think something will come up in the future? or do you think i'm lucky?
