The built-in camera doesn't work and one of my ports does not connect.
My computer, Serial # BK36B4Y25293KV, is barely 1 year old. I bought the extended warrantee for it. Do I take it somewhere or have to send it out for repairs?

What does the warranty repair cost?
4 water drops got spilled on the keyboard and now the screen is purple and 1/3rd of the screen does not work. This is what the warranty page says if I ship it to you for repairs. Will I be charge more than $430 once the part is received?
