I went to the Florida Mall in Orlando last Saturday. It was 60 miles door to door.
Always great to play with the electronics while I was there.

Thanks. I am using my iPhone now. Ispilled something on my laptop, an now four letters won't type. I don't think all Apple stores are the same, and want to go to a good one.

We've had good luck with the one at Millennia Mall. Takes us 1 hour to get there from central Villages (Sumter Landing).

I spilled water on my apple key board and left it over a AC duct for 2 days and everything worked by the 3rd day.

I'll bet the four letters you'd like to type are "S**T"!

I go to the Apple Store in Mall at Millenia. If you're gonna try the service, I'd call them for an appointment first.

Peace....

I have a very thin formed rubber-like membrane that fits over all the keys of my iBook G4, so nothing can be spilled into them. Soft and you don't even notice it when typing. You might look for one.

Default Electronics Cleaner

Radio shack has electronic components spray.

Hold the key board upside down over newspaper and spray into the area, Do not get on plastic screens.

On second thought a trip to Orland and a qualified Apple tech my be fun!

Well I for one was very disappointed in the Apple store at the Mall at Millenia. I went in to try out a few computers and they kept trying to sell me makeup.

Thanks, Car Guy I will try the cleaner, though I have already bought a new Mac Pro. I think the cleaner might work!
