Sorry to hear it is all going so badly.
Don't normally post in this area - IT questions are more my thing, but saw this thread linked from TheRegister, and thought I'd pass on my condolences. I used to work for EDS, until about 5 weeks ago, when we were all let out... Due to JPA being ready to 'take the strain'.
Ooops.
Left the country - well out of EDS' grasp now :>
Seriously, we met the support guys'n'gals who were taking over, and I'm sure they are doing their utmost to get things running at full speed.
Good luck.
