computer repair, password needed?

[usr1987]

When you take your computer in for repair (Spilled soda on laptop) does the tech need your password or can they make repairs without it? I suppose someone who knows computers probably can gain access to your stuff once he's inside, no? I got some sensitive (no not porno) stuff on it.

thx

you just kiddin

I would have a tech on site rather than take it there!
