Laptop update

So Armand just called me to tell me that my laptop is back and ready for pick up. Yay! But then he tells me that they were unable to recover ANY data. At all. After they said there was a "very good chance" they would be able to recover "up to 70%". I'm not mad they couldn't recover anything; I'm sure they tried their best, and I'm sure they didn't mean to "lie". Given the information about how my laptop failed and their success rate, I'm going to assume they told me the truth as they saw it. I, however, don't want the truth. I want something that doesn't get my hopes up, even if it is a bit of a lie. Something more to the tune of "often we are able recover a large amount of data, however, sometimes we inexplicably get nothing at all". That sounds like a good company line that won't make you overly hopeful, unless you are an uber-hopeful retard, which is what I became after hearing the line they actually gave us. So, after the shock wears off and I'm done crying over my own bloody stupidity, I will be scouring the Internet/area for data recovery specialists, and preparing myself for the inevitable financial butt-raping that will occur as a result.
