Turn it upside down. There are some guides on the web that suggest putting it in a bag of rice, e.g. While that’s probably better than nothing, there is no substitute for removing the liquid as quickly as possible.

If the spill is very recent, we can attempt to salvage your computer with a disassembly, cleaning and drying for $200. If the spill is older, please contact us for repair options.

An ounce of prevention: It only takes a thimble-sized amount of coffee to ruin a keyboard, resulting in a $400 repair. Spilling half a cup could run you $800-$1200. Buy a high quality Moshi ClearGuard Keyboard Protector today to prevent this common catastrophe.
