[vblood911]

I think a certain little woman in your life needs to use her Google-Fu and find you a travel coffee mug that when knocked over, doesn't spill.

Or, you should start putting your coffee in a spill proof toddler cup. Those things are awesome.

Looks good, and there are a couple other designs that claim to be leak-proof at the bottom of the page. Pick one or two you like, and they're absolutely on me. I think you should definitely get more than one, so you don't have to wash it every day, even if it's two or three of the same design.

Grown-up sippy cup!

That's so cool! I've spilled coffee on important papers and checks and stuff as well as my keyboard; I think everyone needs one of those!

Could you get a thing like this and have one of your techy friends install it? (I don't think this is the right one, but I could probably find the right one.)

that's cool and all but i have a PowerBook G4, last generation of that kind. It's a very different computer from the Macbooks, I know I know all mac's look the same to you but really they are very different looking.

I know it's not the right one, but I can find stuff about the right one, like how to clean and take the keys off a PowerBook G4 and $50 replacement keyboards for the PowerBook G4.
