turn off, battery out turn upside down and dry out for a day

if Coke or fizzy then you are screwed more than likely

I'd go with browntoa's advice, though a computing student I know spilled coke in one and it survived amazingly.

Perhaps from now on you should have drinks in sports cap bottles or sat on the floor just to be on the safe side - it's what I've resorted to. Either that or straws so you don't move the cup.

I've been threatened with a tommee tippee cup for my coffee if I almost kill my laptop again! I'm tempted to just give in and do it!

opened up a toshiba for a guy at work as it was not working, you could smell the coffe when the keyboard was off !!

you could also trace the route it took across the motherboard and into the HDD, hence the thing was un-repairable

Remember to wipe yhe excess fluid off before drying it out.I'm a very clumsy girl so always spilling things. GOOD LUCK!
