You have reported his company to the police. I imagine any solicitor would instruct the company not to communicate further at this point. I know mine would.

If your client can effectively loose thousand of pounds from downtime, the responsible thing to do would be to have some form of backup in place...

What if you had a hardware failure such as the machines hard drive failing resulting in downtime and if it was the only drive in the machine extreme data loss.

I would also be interested to hear how much you paid for the machine.
Your situation sounds mission critical and should be spared no expense!

One other thing I would point out is Ed posted at 08:55 PM.
I'd hope this is his personal time and he is relaxing and reading up some WHC gossip!
