well done! Never give up on a Mac. The hard drive (conventional) in my iMac shit the bed. It's so old that Apple won't even work on it anymore. Off to the aftermarket repair shop and in two weeks I had it back with a new hard drive, all my files restored, and the machine generally tuned up. I thought the data recovery was going to be a fortune, but it was under $200. All in, it was a $350 bill and I have almost a new computer.
