went to the data center today, got back, laptop was warm (should have gone to sleep), opened it up, black screen. power cycled, got the file folder with the ?.

41 minutes later, after a reinstall & restore from time machine, I restart firefox, it tells me that it must have crashed, asked to restore my tabs, and I'm back up and running.

I hope you get your files back, but, time machine has now saved me twice.
