Humpty Dumpty (Dead Hard Drive) Returns

Well, my $75 investment to restore the drive was worth it. As it turns out,
it spun up for them, and they quickly recovered the entire drive to a 320G
external drive I had given them. I'm now about to use unstoppable to create
on a new HD a bootable copy of what they gave me. If that doesn't work, at
least I've got all my data back. In any case, I will likely by a Vista PC.
The machine that misfired is 5 years old, and I need some more zip that I
have.
