Advertisement for data recovery company, circa 1999
If you have ever had a hard drive crash or accidentally deleted something, you know what a pain it is to try to remedy the situation. I did this piece a while back for Power Quest, a software company that specialized in recovery of lost data. They no longer exist since being absorbed by Symantec.The concept was a frantic PC owner watching as his hard drive gets operated on. The technology probably looks a little dated now, but the concept was fun to paint. It ran in a bunch of computer magazines back in the day.
The image might 'look' a little dated, but I'm sure we can all relate to the feeling as if it was yesterday, uh this morning, uh... last week... smiles.
