Melted notebook

Broken MacBook Pro

I melted my MacBook Pro, it all started when I spilled water on the keyboard of my notebook. I then tried to dry it with hair dryer and it melted the keyboard. So I gotta call Apple now to find out how much it costs for a replacement keyboard.

The notebook is not even one year!

Looking on the bright side, this happened right after I purchased a new 20” iMac (Core 2 Duo). I now have to move all my work from the MacBook Pro to the iMac until I can get it repaired.
