Water damage?

Posted:

Hey guys,

I recently did a slide show for my cousin's wedding. While left unattended someone spilled some water on the keyboard of my PowerMac G4. Now the space bar, m, option, and apple key (on the right hand side) don't work. Is this going to be permanent? I have let it dry out for about a week now and still nothing, but originally none of the keys worked and now just those select few don't. Will it just take more time for them to work, or are they fried?



Thanks

    Probably fried. Water damage is seldom covered in warranties, but you can call AppleCare if you've got it and want to check (and yes, they can usually tell when they repair the thing if/when water damage occurs). You can do a quick search on Google and find some replacement keyboards pretty easily though.
