Just had a call from someone at work (large NHS PC infested organisation) who by rumour has found out that I use a Mac. He has on his family's computer (G4) what sounds like hard drive problems with grinding sounds and failure to read/start up properly. Not sure what system is on it. Does anyone know of any Mac repair shops/people in the Dulwich area of London who could save his data? I asked if they had any backups and unfortunately the reply was no. Doesn't appear to have any appropriate recovery tools, has an external La Cie hard drive but at the moment I don't know what is on this or whether it is even Mac formatted. Have asked him to get as much info as possible from family but not to attempt to start machine until he has a strategy worked out. Any suggestions on how to best deal with this would be greatly appreciated. Many thanks Richard
