OK, we've established that it was stupid to not have a backup of something
so important... but won't you all agree that ATIC was just as stupid or
stupider? A computer shop can't just go around erasing people's hard drive,
a COMPUTER SHOP! Especially after being told specifically. Being a COMPUTER
SHOP, they're expected to know better. I think a judge would award mr Zhang
compensation. ATIC was obviously negligant, therefore they have to pay. The
issue isn't wether Mr. Zhang was foolish or not, but wether ATIC was
responsable, and if so, how much (in $'s).
