Last night working at home, eating my dinner at my desk the unthinkable happen. I dropped my wireless mouse into the sauce container of my Sweet and Sour Chicken. What a mess!</SPAN>
Drop, splash and everywhere …. One dead mouse, sticky keyboard (sure some OC individual have sticky keyboard is normal ) and one big red mess on the papers and documents mofo Chinese.:D </SPAN>

I've gone through about three keyboards due to spilling too many alcoholic beverages into them. I'm not proud.

I've never spilled anything on any of my computers. Ever. I did drop my iPod Touch a few years ago and shattered the screen.

Beer into/on my laptop.

Thankfully all I had to do was replace the keyboard.

No computer mishaps for me but I did drop my cell phone in a puddle of water about 10 minutes after buying it. Luckily it was okay.

I spilled water on my laptop keyboard almost 3 weeks ago. Its only about 5 months old, so I was pretty upset especially since I paid for it and I'm absolutely broke right now. Still, I put it in a box of rice for 5 days, booted it up just for the hell of it, and it worked like nothing was wrong! Needless to say, I got super lucky.

I have a laptop, so spillage on the keyboard is a big issue. I do eat while using it and have from time to time had mustard, bbq sauce, etc fall from what I'm eating, but nothing serious.

As for my mouse, nope. I do drop it like crazy and the cover for the battery keeps popping off now. But, that thing is rugged.

My wife, though, dropped a phone in a cup of pop from a fast food place. She didn't realize it because she had stopped drinking from it and a few hours later was wondering where her phone was to make a call. The phone was dead.

Cell phone through the washer - it was done. MP3 Player through the washer - it came back and worked fine after about a week.

Also spilled beer on my parents keyboard while in high school. The "L" was iffy after, which made for a funny moment when my dad was trying to put the word "clocks" into a document.

I spilled an entire McD's Large Ice Tea cup full of ice water on my laptop keyboard. Dried what I could and turned it upside down overnight so hopefully the other water would run out. Still works great.
