Re: Unthinkable Computer Boo-boo
 
John:

If your laptop is a ThinkPad, the keyboard on them is 'firewalled' for lack of a better term from the other components of the laptop. I'm guessing the stickiness you are talking about is from the liquid you spilled. Most of us have done this. I just took a damp paper towel and then used a nail file (not metal) and used the damp paper towel to go up and down and across each row of keys (going in between them). Then take a dry paper towel and repeat.

It works like a charm. No more sticky keyboard. I wouldn't go anywhere but authorized IBM tech if you want to go further. Do not go to 'big box' outfits.
