[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP here. Not a work laptop. This is a personal laptop that I use for some of my side 1099 jobs. We can afford it, but money I tight. I mean there isn’t much wiggle room with 2 mortgages and house fix ups and daycare and extracurriculars. We have enough savings, but man, I’m surprised so many of you wouldn’t bat an eye.[/quote] I would bat an eye, but I would also realize that it was my own fault for giving expensive electronics to a child who had an unsecured drink nearby. Additionally, I would realize that accidents happen to literally everyone, stuff spills, and that it was not a catastrophe or reflection on my daughter's character and worthy of condemnation and punishment. I've had plenty of my own near-misses with my laptop, self-inflicted as an adult, and one time where I basically showed it in soda and Dell had to replace it. This is what the accidental damage warranty is for.[/quote]
