Sony Vaio in freak beer accident
Morning chaps
I've managed to b*****r up my very reliable but sadly aging Sony Vaio FX-401 (five years old but still doing well) in a somewhat clumsy manner.... I dropped a glass of beer about three feet from the laptop and a couple of splashes made it to the keyboard.
Now the keyboard doesn't work - it won't reposnd to key presses although I get the message "Word has noticed you are pressing the CTRL key. Do you want to start in safe mode?" so clearly there are phantom key presses being detected.
So the exam question is this: is it worth taking to PC World (or wherever) to get it fixed - assuming it CAN be fixed - or should I buy a new one?
It's in use every day - browsing, e-mail and office-type stuff. I travel fairly frequently and it comes with me most places I go, leaving 'er indoors with the PC.
Advice?
Cheers
