Oh, yes, definitely!  If you have a crashed hard drive, and need Disk 
Warrior, it is a godsend.

I've had Disk Warrior save a trashed hard drive from me under OS 9.  
Fortunatly, under OS X, there seem to be far fewer stories of Macs 
corrupting their directories and folks needing Disk Warrior to ressurect 
their hard drive.  But it, unfortunately, still happens to some folks, as 
you have found out the hard way, Robert.  

That doesn't mean that everyone needs to run out and purchase Disk 
Warrior, though.  However it is nice to know that in such an instance you 
can get Disk Warrior and it may save your bacon.
