i spilled a good deal of sweet tea on the keyboard of my powerbook and now many of the keys are sticky. the rest of the computer works fine (i instinctively flipped it over and let the liquid run out). the only huge problem is that my "i" button doesn't work anymore (i have to copy/paste it from the clip board to use it. is there a way to clean the keys and fix my "i" key?
