You know, you can buy an adapter to put your laptop hard drive in a desktop computer as a slave so you can copy your shit over.
Unless the hard drive died too...?

as far as i can tell the motherboard is fried. it used to be i could press it and it'd come on for a few seconds even if the battery was completely dead. now there are no lights or anything. the little node/cylinder thing behind the actual plug EXPLODED and burned with white fire. im confident ill be able to recover the data but if i can't, im gonna need all of you guys' help. im talking all the AE live sets you have, unreleaseds shit, FLACS, its all gone if my HD got fried in the process. thats like at least 15 gig of unreleads AE i am gonna need to recover, and ill know what im missing cause the folder trees basically imprinted in my brain, ill have none of it if the HD ate shit (30gb)
looking at gettin one of these:
compaq presario V500T or whatever

O for chrissake don't get a Compaq. Anything Compaq touches is a box of shit. Stay away from HP too. Get an Asus laptop. Toshiba Tecras are nice too.

What model? I'm not a big fan of Toshiba or anything, but I heard their Tecra line was good. The satellite and qosmio, not so much.

that suxx. i think the hd should be ok so you'll be able to recover the data more/less easily.
personally i do not know much about laptops and their problems except i've seen with my own eyes how a friend had slipped on icy stairs and landed on his laptop, breaking that screen ($600 minimum to replace).

That sucks.. hope you will recover it all. I myself always work with audio on an external drive (feels more reliable) and I have an second external drive for backup + burning dvd's with the most important bits from time to time. I have never had an crash of any sort though, but I really fear it, it seems very common =/
