Laptop Charger URGENT
Where's the closest store to Mac for a HP laptop charger? Kthx.

My roommate's pudding exploded in her bag and she rinsed her charger...so now it doesn't work.

I would say Canada Computers at Dundurn and Main.

Bring it in, then bat your eyes a bit, they might do a free diagnostic to make sure it is really faulty.

Desda, lorii all say thanks to PHLN for this post.

I think my blowdryer fixed it... Hopefully.
It takes forever to turn on and isn't really showing that it's charging though... at least I can get online. For now. D:

I figured that. Was mainly interested in the fact that her blowdryer "fixed" it.

Electronics that have gotten wet + blowdryer --> often fixed. Unless you foolishly turn it on before drying it.

yeah, you two have the right guy. He came knocking on my room asking me to google "macbook water damage". To which I replied ".... I have GOT to see this!" When I asked what the problem was he plugged it in and told me to listen. SIZZLE~ He seriously thought it was going to be okay...

FYI: macbook fumes smells kinda like burnt popcorn
