Burgess Consulting recovered all of the data from this laptop

Laptop_5_small

When the library of Pine Grove Elementary School was gutted from an intense fire, this laptop was discovered in the ashes.

The hard drive contained all of the insurance information needed to pay for replacing the books, computers, tables, and everything else that had been totally destroyed in the fire.

In despair, the District IT director sought out our help. We recovered ALL OF THE DATA from this laptop.

Six months later, the library re-opened, full of books, computers, tables, happy children, and one very happy librarian!
