Heck, I pay ~400/year for BSD/OS support on my home machine because when I have a complex problem, I need someone to concentrate on getting it solved, so commerical support isn't just for finger-pointing. The $400/year has been worth it for me so I suspect there are PostgreSQL users that need such support too. -- Bruce Momjian | http://candle.pha.pa.us pgman@candle.pha.pa.us | (610) 853-3000 + If your life is a hard drive, | 830 Blythe Avenue + Christ can be your backup. | Drexel Hill, Pennsylvania 19026
