I just spilled water on my computer..

The adult part of me hopes everything is okay, while the not so adult geek in me hopes that this is a good reason to upgrade my computer.

It's currently drying now. We'll see later what works. Wish me luck!

@resist1984 I'm not a clumsy person when it comes to this, but I guess even the sun has its spots.

@hund was it powered off before water could get inside? I think the common reaction is people turn their device on because they want to assess the damage, but it's not the spill that does damage, it's the power going through a wet circuit board. So you need the discipline to wait till it's bone-dry.

@resist1984 It was currently running, but I turned it off and disconnected it as fast as I could. :)

@hund @resist1984 Have a mug with suction on bottom. They would witstand some amount of force and would not fall that easily
