Hi there, I have a 2017 macpro 13" that I purchased new a few months ago.
I spilled a glass of water over the key board the other night. I quickly flipped it over, powered down and dried it off, let it sick a couple day before powering it back on. everything but the screen seems to be working fine. I'll attach the picture to show what my screen currently looks like.
I didn't purchase any extra warrantees and don't think water damage would be covered anyways.
Am I totally screwed? Anyone else see this before?
Thanks
Anthony

Looks like water inside the screen but I have no idea, don't really think there's any air space for water to be in there.

Probably looking at $600ish for a new screen.

you made newbie mistake by flipping over the laptop, I saw many of them screwed up by similar way

liquid probably reached also the logic board, so cost of repair will be over $1000
