Macbook Pro water damage
Ok, so I've done a bit of research about water damage to macbooks but I was wondering what you guys had to say about my situation.
Last night, my 2010 15" MBP was sitting on a table, while turned on, along with a cup of water sitting behind it. When the cup was knocked over, the water poured onto the table creating a puddle which reached the back of the computer but only slightly before I picked it up and set it aside. The puddle of water was shallow and only a small portion of the bottom of the computer was slightly wet so I didn't think much of it. However, about 5-10 minutes later it turned off, and after turning it on again, (I NOW know I shouldn't have) it turned off again a couple minutes later. This morning, it just wouldn't turn on.
I know some of the water must have gone in just under the black strip in the back but I was wondering, is this worse than if water spilled directly onto the keyboard and whatever the answer may be, would this have tripped any of the liquid substance indicators as I am unaware of their location?
Thanks for your help. It is greatly appreciated.
Btw, I am currently waiting the recommended 3-5 days to not turn it on and let dry and then I will take it to the apple store.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
