Interesting! A few weeks after I got my 667 I spilt a whole glass of Merlot
on it. Fortunately I was quick enough to turn it upside down and drain it
before any reached the components under the keyboard. I had to work on the
keyboard with compressed air, contact fluid and alcohol for a few hours, but
I was able to return the Powerbook to its pristine state eventually.

No ill effects and I was sure glad I had not drunk any before the incident
happened!
