Just bought - but have yet to receive - a new laptop/netbook (11.6" screen so it's sort of halfway between the two).

My husband tipped a glass of wine over my Sony ereader on sat night... We unscrewed the back and got the battery out and wiped out the moisture. It has been drying in rice since.

Safe To Use Partion On Laptop
Hi, I have a Toshiba laptop with a 300GB hard drive. It came with a 150 GB "C" Drive and a 150GB "E" Drive which I presume is a partition rather than a second drive. The only thing on the "E" Drive an HDD recovery folder, about 5GB worth, so there is about 145GB free. Is it safe to use some of this space for storing other…
