I've spilt plain ol' Jack Daniels on the keyboard -- I only drink the good stuff in front of the fire and that's usually a Balvenie 25 in the port cask or a Lagavulin (much smokier than the Laphroaig)-- Immediately shut down (i.e. pulled the plug) and let it dry out. No problems! ("dry out" + booze, I crack myself up!) Oh, and if yer talkin' 'Merican booze, it's "WhisKEY", Scotch, of course, is "Whisky" Bryster- I have a 3 Quart, 5 ounce bottle of Corsendonk Monk's Pale Ale with a Plaque that reads "Illigitamii non Corborundum"! Long story... I'll tell you sometime.
