Tomato juice on motherboard
Afternoon,
About this time yesterday I had the unfortunate disaster of having someone spill tomato juice on the table my MacBook was on (the MacBook was being used at the time) the tomatoe juice managed to work it's way through the black grid like part and onto the mother board!
I have un screwed the case panel, looking at it with all the insides facing me (with where the screen hinges at the top) and you can clearly see where it got, it is now showing signs of corrosion!
As it was on at the time of incident, I went to put it back on the table and it was not on anymore? Stupidly tried turning it on, made start up sound but that was all! Tried this a few times but nothing! Then I pressed the volume keys and it made the noise it usually does, giving the impression that maybe the screen is affected! However the white power light was not on and no screen!
What's the likely hood it's broken and what sort of cost are new motherboards? It was tomatoe juice, not exactly like it will evaporate! Signs of corrosion are definitely there!
Please advise :-)
Is this a good question?

Can you supply us the last four digits of your serial number so we can correctly identify your model. Having that we might be able to offer better guidance.
