Actually, I much prefer being on the other side of the table to EDS and screwing up their sales patter to the client. For example, in one EDS/HMG contract, there were 72 pages of garble on liquidated damages in the event of service failure (and yes, I had to read all of them, plus the other 300-odd pages of contract speak). Don't think the EDS account manager was too pleased when I pointed out the clause earlier on in the contract that meant the circumstances where liquidated damages would be payable could never occur in the real world...
