Shouldn't be too bad today. Twenty years ago, when people smoked in
office buildings... Even so, hardware is cheap. Labor isn't.
Including the labor of re-entering or re-creating lost data. Of
course, proper backup procedures can minimize this.
If the data is already lost, the repair tech isn't going to bring it
back without a lot of heroics and luck. The bottom line is: don't
lose data. It doesn't come back.
Sometimes -- if the data has been entered from dead tree form,
it may still be around and can be re-entered. And if it is calculated
data from existing input -- that also can be re-calculated.
But that costs a lot more (in time) than proper backups. :-)
Enjoy,
DoN.
