My kid spilled ginger ale on my MacBook a few months ago. I thought it was spared. Alas, no... It died a couple of weeks ago. Took it to the store and the guy said there was liquid pooled (congealed I'd guess) near the cable that supplies power to the main circuit board. It simply won't turn on, but was running fine up until it wouldn't turn on.
My question is: Can I attempt to clean this up and fix it myself? If so how?
Right now the best I can do is either pay almost as much as a new MacBook to have it fixed or turn it in to Apple for recycling (which I could potentially be compensated for, though that is highly unlikely due to the whole liquid damage). Can it be saved?
