Fooked, where did you spill it, If keyboard you can replace it, screen can also be replaced but its whether its worth it.

Clearly you need to drink red wine, spilt a glass on my old laptop and it was fine

Laptop is fine, you can see the moisture on the screen...Screen ok apart from that. Will try to upload a photo, so you can see what it looks like.

my laptop shares my beer most evenings still going strong

If the laptop is fine then I guess it depends how bothered you are about the moisture in the screen, if not replaced I suspect the moisture will kill it eventually through rust

Wellll

I had a dell m6400 cost 5 grand and it got totally soaked due to a velux being open, dell came for it under their accidental cover and wrote it off, I actually got it back first though and it worked fine lol.

They sent me a new m6500 worth 4k ish had that 4 months and daughter who's 3 sat on the keyboard and pissed hasten to say I rang again they came again and wrote it off, I got this back and guess what after drying out it worked, and I've actually still got it but dell sent me a new m6600 fully loaded touch screen i7 extreme so I have a pissy one and a new one,

Let it dry but beer is bad and will probably hurt the memory and board. The online laptop repair people are good I used them before

If it is an HP Elitebook xx30p, xx40p or xx60p, you can take the battery out and just spill some water over the keyboard, then dry it out and it should still work. We test this in front of our customers. and no, thes are just Business Rugged NB's not fully rugged ones.

take the battery out leave it in the airing cupboard for a few days then try it

It will probably still work but will rust away the contacts eventually.

Not sure about the screen, as beer is sticky so it may leave a patch. You could wash it out with water (not a complete joke).
