    Ok, I know it is stupid but....I spilled coffee on my laptop keyboard! Fortunately I did it before turning the laptop on. So, how damaged is it? Will it need a costly repair?

    The damage depends on the type of laptop and the amount of coffee stilt on it. Some laptops have keyboard designs that can help minimize the effect of a spill.

    I would pull out the battery and hard drive immediately and try to dry the laptop for a few days. Then try to turn the laptop on; if it doesn't work then chances are high that your motherboard has failed. The cost of fixing a laptop motherboard are high, so just buy another laptop and transfer the file from the old drive to the new laptop.
