I was trying to transfer the pictures off of a card, and something in the computer seemed to hesitate, and it stopped. But the properties shows the card as full, but on windows explorer, it shows no files on the card. Can I still save the pictures, or are they corrupted and gone forever? Or are they somewhere else on my computer?

I am agonizing over the decision to buy a new notebook. Runner ups are the D620 and the MacBook Pro. Can you help me make a decision?

Criteria: Core Duo, display with about 1440*900 Pixels, not too heavy. Main application is software development with Eclipse.

D620:

+not heavy
+Windows XP
+sturdy workhouse?
+integrated UMTS card (I don't need it right now, might buy without the card anyway)
+3 year warranty
-no DVI
-slightly more bulky than MacBook Pro (500cm^3 more)
-no fast graphics card (not that important, though)
-I've heard display is not too good, but I don't know?

MacBook Pro
+DVI out
+OK display
+sleek design (slot-in DVD)
+fast graphics card (but no games for OS X)
+boot camp, might be OK as emergency fallback
-OS X, I don't really like it, already have Mac Mini
-Possibly problems with whining noises and heat?
-only one mouse button
-keys for programmers missing (like "{", "|") - could learn them by heart, though
-more expensive
-only one year warranty (that's a big "-")

Alright so I bought a used mac g3 clamshell laptop from a friend and a few months ago. Whenever I would turn it off it would make a weird noise and not turn except a few random times... I asked a friend who said I had a bad hard drive. Now my computer is really slow so I restarted it only the problem is it was loading but theres a white screen and a picture of a folder and in the middle and then a question mark appears inside the folder... Any help how to fix it?

I just installed windows 98 Second Eddition on my friend's mom's laptop. Her laptop is a Dell Lattitude. The instalation went ok, but we are only running 16 colors. When you go into Display Properties, you can only change the colors to either 2 or 16, and you can't resize the desktop. It is stuck huge. What drivers can I get or what do I need to do to get back to 16 or 32 bit? Is there a website I can go to?

considering:

silence and
durability of battery without plugged in

I want to use it for multi purposes (internet surfing, wifi, cd, dvd burning, using without plugged to the socket, ect), but not for gaming and 3D planning.
Celeron is said to consume too much, that's why I don't want to consider them. But if you think differently, I'm glad to hearr your opinion

Competent answers are welcome. Please don't waste your ignorance thx for competent help!
