[ale] need recommendations for a good local company to recover data off of a dead laptop hard drive

[Bob Toxen]

I can recover data from a corrupt disk (even a "rm -rf /") but only if
the data actually can be read.  If only the electronics is fried, first
clean with alcohol, second find identical disk, ...

For $2000, that's gotta be valuable data but it can be done.
IBM can do it but it'll cost you.
