Cap Gemini are are different company and have a big building right next to the one EDS occupy. I think EDS lost some govt work to Cap Gemini or something recently - you may be thinking of that. EDS is still alive and well in the big blue mini-skyscraper building in Telford.Cooking doesn't get tougher than this. -
Cap Gemini and Fujitsu run Aspire out of Telford, thats the HMRC account."I hope Celtic realise that, if their team is good enough, they will win. If they're not good enough, they'll not win - and they can't look at anybody else, whether it is referees or any other influence." - Walter Smith

Yek! Just worked out the year - 1995 - I was working for ICL at the time and managed the ICL helpdesk there.
I bet there were quite a few people who 'used the tunnel'
