if you have another Mac you can plug it in via firewire and then put the one with the damaged drive into special mode (cant remember the name), hold Apple key + E on boot up.

it'll show up as a drive on the working mac and then you ay be able to recover data.

other than that i have no idea, i dont use Mac's much.
