Indeed, narrow aperture will help but you'll gain DoF.

If you have a PC you should primarily store your photos in a folder on your computer. Secondarily you can back them up to CD or memory card or whatever. A memory card isnt the most cost effective solution :)

Don't let it go, they owe you money!

Tablet wouldnt make much difference unless it was a tablet with screen, in hich case wacom have a recent one for about £800 thats quite reasonable. The easiest method in photoshop is to dupicate your layer (makes a copy of the image over the top of your original) by pressing CTRL+J, then...
