ooh no fabric conditioner - you'll make it go all soft! lol

is it a 40 or 60 degree wash comfort/lenor ??

As long as there is no electrical supply into the machine, and no additives in the water, you shouldn't have a problem...it might not take too kindly to being tossed around though! :O)) just don't take it to the nearest launderette 'cos I doubt their insurance will cover it!! lol

technology is fantastic nowadays sounds like motherboards and water go together COOL must put my laptop in the washer tomorrow lol Paul

You can wash the keys if its just surface sticky. If they are sticking, as in staying pressed, you can rinse with warm water, but make sure you tip the laptop upside down to dry so any liquid drains out. Best thing is as soon as you spill anything in your laptop, swill it with water and tip it upside down immediately - if its left to dry you may not be able to clean it properly and it will need taking apart. (I know this 'cos my step-dad has had to do it more than once with a friend's laptop...she keeps managing to throw red wine at it!! lol)

malc my daughter tipped coffee over the keyboard.thought it would die on me but cleaned it up and was fine.like you said the keys were sticky though and kept getting stuckxxxxxx(:

Thanks Sue I will heed the advice. Linda tried a damp cloth but it didnt work will try a baby wipe if I can remember where to buy them
