I destroyed a laptop keyboard with a small splash of coffee. It required
service and a replacement of the keyboard. I have heard of people washing
detachable keyboards. I have never understood how when they are now almost
always "smart" keyboards with lights and circuitry. Would love to hear of
success stories.
