Hi , Need urgent help.

I have been happily using old desktop G3 300mhz 1998 model for my home art/design business. Monetary funds did not previously allow for an upgrade.

My printer inks recently become unavailable which has prompted me to upgrade computer.. printer etc. As I was trying to work out exactly what was needed.. my old g3 screen went black and has pretty much died. Got everything into 1 folder..comes to about 900mbs just before it did. Illustration and photoshop files. (old software).

Now I need to get them off old g3 and onto new mac0s10.6 leopard. There is about two years of design work just waiting to be printed. I need them desperately!! How do I go about retrieving these files.

Just a bit concerned if I take it to a tech person they will lose my files. they all seem a bit doubtful when I mention the problem. Any thought or suggestions would be most appreciated.
