I was enthusiastic about learning supreq_at_us.oracle.com when I upgraded my support contract recently. UpdateTAR did not work (or took longer than a week). Getting bulletins and bug reports was ok, but the search engine rules are pretty wierd, who has time to hit the entry point on that stuff when you are trying to solve a frustrating problem, meet deadlines and wrangle with upgrades?

Comet: I'm glad to hear that "metal" customers will be able to get into a tech support WWW soon! Keep up the good work.
