i spilt a can of lemonade on my computer keyboard - i turned the comp off straight away, tipped the keyboard upside down and let it dry out then plugged it back in a week later and it worked fine.
my brother was using my laptop while having it on his lap. It overheated and fried the motherboard (12 days out of extended warranty ) i have to do a solder reflow on that mofo to get it working again.
Ive blown up a 19" lcd - plugged it into the power socket while it was switched on, it made a massive pop noise. -had it repaired for $80 and still use it till this day.
Lightning struck next to my house and surged the power in the house, in the end i had to replace 1 gig ram and a video card to even boot the computer back up again (onboard graphics output was blown on motherboard) - this computer still works till this day.
so i guess a lot of shit happens but if you know how to fix it or identify which part of the system is fkd then you can fix it relatively easily.
