I may be too late on this, but…
my daughter knocked a cup of tea over on the table behind my 17" macbook pro. The tidal wave of tea entered the vent at the back. I wondered why it switched off so suddenly. I picked it up and about half a cup of tee came out of the join between the base cover and the bit where the light is at the front.
I figured it was a write off but I took the base cover off, and left it to dry for a couple of days. I put it back together and switched on. it tried to boot but a 'forbidden' symbol came up. I got online and fooled the instructions on doing a 'scan disk' type procedure. It booted up and the only ill effect is that sometimes the CD rom doesn't work properly.
A friend of mine also poured a bottle of beer into the keyboard of my 13" matchbook and the only thing wrong is that half the keys don't light up any more.
Maybe take it apart, give it a good dry and see what happens.
