If you spill juice on a keyboard.. restarting doesn't do anything. You can clean it out, and that's as far as you can go until you have to replace the keypad. Sadly, laptops that're used commercially and for simple task often don't have easily replaceable keycaps/keypads. However, sometimes you get lucky. I had an issue similar to this back when I had my old Acer, where I spilled water on my keyboard. Suddenly, half my keyboard quit working, and I figured I'd have to replace it. A few days later, I used a hair dryer and slowly ran it over the keys to try and evaporate the water, and within a day, the keys worked again. :p

It's not the price of the keyboard replacement that's the issue- it's the installing that tends to be the turndown. Most people who use conventional laptops aren't technically inclined, and aren't willing to go busting open their laptop to replace a keyboard. Admittedly, to the experienced person, it's easy enough- with the exception of some older models, and some small form factor laptops- but it's usually more of a pain than its worth, and opening it up can void warranty. :p
