I woke from a nap yesterday and walked into the living room only to find my son`s girlfriends diet coke turned over and spilling into my computer while it was still on and connected to the net. Due the the dusty conditions where I live, I operate with an open case because I have to clean the machine about 6 times a year. She (the girlfriend) was nowhere around...and I immediately shut er (the computer) down. I unplugged everything, drained the diet coke out, and set my system out in shade under an oak tree to dry out. Took another nap and woke up to the sound of rain. I ran outside, grabbed the computer and brought it inside where I placed it in front of the Air Conditioner. Two hours later I connected all the wires back up and turned her on. That was yesterday and here I am using her to ask questions. I refer to my machine as her because my wife says "she" (my computer) is my mistress. Her reply to this story was that the mistess deserved to die so that my wife would get more.........

well, it's quite amazing that your pc still is able to be turned on. Diet coke, *while running*. Well, surely it should have shorted your PC in such way that your computer become fairly unrepairable. You're quite lucky the machine is still alive.
