    So... yeah. Two and a half days ago I spilled beer over a keyboard. Due to that these days are holidays when no one works or is somehow reachable to help, I struggled with with onscreen keyboard.

    Now only few keys doesn't work - so, maybe, keyboard survived. the first to come to life was touchpad, then other keys at random.

    So - the word of advice - if spill wasn't so big [about 0.1l or even less] and you can live without typing massive amounts or smthn - maybe its worth to not explore notebook's depths by yourself or go to a dealer for all the fuss and just wait.

    But, I guess, MAYBE, I just got lucky and nothing is finished yet.
