Telling this story to give others hope!
So my 17 Year old daughter comes to me in tears to tell me she spilled fruit juice all over her laptop last night... its been marinating in it for hours until she built up the courage to come tell me.
Well, I figured that nothing could really hurt it now so...
I completely disassembled it and thoroughly washed it under hot running water with a toothbrush (everything except lcd, optical drive and hard drive).
Then I patted everything semi-dry and rigged up a space-heater powered drying box, I regulated the temp until it was about 130F. Let it dry for a day and a half in there. Reassembled, and it works perfectly.
Amazing!
Thanks to iFixit for the disassembly instructions.
