A glass of wine was spilled on my Mac extended keyboard. I opened it and 
cleaned all the circuit traces with alcohol, but the keyboard still 
malfunctions. The power on key seems to be in a continuous "on" state. 
The keycaps DA indicates that a number of other keys think that 
they are pressed. I notice two chips inside. Does one of these typically fail?
Is it cost effective to have the keyboard repaired? Should I just buy a
Datadesk keyboard?
