How do I get the data off the harddrive w/o power?
Will you recycle my laptop after the data is removed?

I only can answer the data question
you can use a external hard disk case or photo tank to plug the ide drive to a usb port.
i use an usb adaptor set for my data stuff - i can connect almost all types of harddisks to my system

photo tank?
yes photo tank - search for IAMOLED Photo Tank
it's nothing special, some are quite simple and are only to copy the pictures from the sd or cf card to the hdd - but the have an usb connector and you can use them as a external hdd.
the casings are pretty cheap and become very handy in those cases
Here's an adapter that works for me: http://eshop.macsales.com
Then I use a program called SuperDuper to copy the drive:
