Somewhat amusingly (from a certain perspective), two weeks ago I got the SECOND ticket in 23 years of teching regarding for a printer that someone spilled a Coke into.
And last week, I was wondering why a computer wasn't working right. Popped it open and ... another Coke spill.
A can of Coke: $1.00.
New HP Hi-Volume Printer and New Hi-End Mac: $5,000.
Earning the hatred of your computer tech and department: Priceless.
You MIGHT be able to recover a computer/printer/whatever if you've spilled some liquid that doesn't have sugar in it -- like water -- but something like milk or Coke ... no.
