About a month ago, he was drinking a martini and spilled it on the keyboard of our computer. Now, this was not the stupid thing. After all, everyone is clumsy once in a while. In fact, if our computer was not a portable (with the motherboard under the keyboard) this would not have been a big deal at all. Addict that he is, he was not willing to wait until the keyboard dried out on its own, noooo, he had to hurry the process. So, what did he do but try to dry the keyboard with a blow dryer. THAT was the stupid thing. He actually melted the keyboard.

Suprisingly enough, the computer no longer worked!

Believe it or not, his dad took the computer home and allowed it to dry out, replaced the keyboard and it actually was undamaged. I joke about how the computer was wasted, then spent some time hung over, but after a reasonable time "drying out", is functioning just fine. At least he didn't try giving it coffee or a cold shower to sober it up!

Be well,
yes, computers do not do well with alcohol...very bad things happen.

it is a good thing the keyboard was rendered useless BEFORE anyone began adding to the forum after a few too many drinks!
