    Default Massive layoffs projected

    "The good news is that they're back to being sort of break even," Lehman's Niles
    said, but he questioned whether Sun's revenues were enough to support its
    35,000-strong employee base. "At a certain point, break even isn't going to cut
    it. You need to either get the profitability up so you can support your employee
    base or you need to go through further restructuring," he said.
