ND, Will's computer started smoking yesterday. (Goodbye, 2006, I hate you.) Can I assume any local repair store can troubleshoot it?

Vodka/plain lime juice is not part of the experiment
Can we consider it canonical, then?
You delight in paining me. It's not part of the experiment because I already know it's too sour, and plus IT'S NO GIMLET!
