A relative of sorts has seriously hosed her un-backed-up laptop. I think it's a Windows 98 box. She's already had it to one data recovery place who failed to recover the data, and she keeps trying to run scandisk and I don't know what else on it.

Can anyone recommend a reputable data recovery place or warn against any not-so-reputable ones? I'm concerned at this point that she's just going to get ripped off by an unscrupulous operator, but she has months of school work on this box and she is determined to keep trying.

My definition of an ethical place is one that will tell her to give up if it is hopeless, without charging her in four figures. She's an unemployed student and really can't afford this.
(she's in Newton/Needham area but planning to send the disk to NH, so anywhere is OK)

thanks
Betsy
