This is why I love living in a tech house and having techie friends.
If I don't know how to fix it, they do.
If I do something stupid to my computer, they tell me I'm stupid and then help me fix it.
But sorry about your computer.
I would die if I lost my stuff, seriously. Well no, I'm not emo...but I'd be pretty darned sad.

Did he even try? I mean, if you didn't toss the hardware someone here might be able to recover the data for you. Also, what kind of computer was it originally?
In fact, if the platters are intact, I actually know of a guy who works for the NSA doing data recovery that moonlights doing it for normal people.
