No no no - don't put it IN water, just run water through it. Submerging any electrical item in water is likely to screw it up, but I'm just talking about a short rinse...you can seriously run the keyboard bit under a slow tap, just for a few seconds to rinse the crap out, then lay it face down so any excess water comes straight back out. A bit like when you get coffee in a normal keyboard...same principle. I swear, I have seen it done - twice to the same laptop - and she still uses it!

Sarah Report 27 Mar 2005 20:01

Seriously though Paul, you can rinse out a laptop without causing damage - plain water is ok as long as there is no power to the machine when you do it (ie unplug it AND remove the battery pack), and don't soak it completely - the real problems stem from things like coffee and beer 'cos of the sugars in them.

if you put it in the tumble dryer- wrap a towel around it first, then you dont risk it damaging your tumble dryer. lol.
