Not so great IMO, and FWIW, I am a C.E.T. with 60+ years experience at this 
sort of thing.

If the power supply is removed, and this link gets that part, there is no 
need to be all that parsimonious with the use of water, the more the 
merrier so use the dishwasher without soap and cold.  But if a laptop or 
other self contained battery powered model, I think I'd also remove the 
speakers if they aren't wet with the drink,  And if it has a bios battery 
that should also be removed.  Some cannot.

If you really want it clean, make the last rinse or 3 in a big Tupperware 
bowl with about 2 gallons of distilled water in it, your city/drinking 
water isn't THAT good.  Swish it around good, agitate the hell out of it to 
get that water into all the cracks & cranny's the soda maybe have gotten 
into.  Set the carcass out, dump that now contaminated water out & put 2 
more gallons in the bowl, repeat.  By 3 rinses, the bowl itself should be 
fairly clean.  Stick the probes of a digital voltmeter set to measure ohms 
in the water, and repeat the change out for fresh water until the meter 
stays on infinity, pure distilled water is an excellent insulator. Any 
leftover soda leeching back out of it and you will see it easily on the 
DVM.

Cheers, Gene
