I was RIFed, System group, Santa Clara CA. Major layoff. I was in Support. So if you expect support for Sun products it is highly unlikely you will get any. The Oracle Monkey is off my back.

No personal info but are you customer facing support or dev? Any one from CR support rif'd?
Solaris/Sparc support is horrible. Seems like all the good ones bailed earlier.

What kind of support org were you in? HW field delivery, remote SW support or backline development support?
For this to be credible you need to provide more specific details
Any sales team affected or just support/dev?
