Well, that's not really fair. There are a number of good people
that work for Oracle Support. True, there are also some that
are subpar, but how often is it necessary to open a TAR anymore?
MetaLink has vastly improved over the past couple of years.
I've called Oracle for a TAR once in the past 18 months.
Some excellent in depth posts that you may have seen on this
list were put there buy Oracle support personnel.
No, I'm not saying who they are.

Subject: RE: Oracle Arm Twisting?
Yes, Oracle support sucks, and is staffed with morons. However one thing
you get with Oracle support that you cannot get with third party support
is bug fixes and product upgrades. If you want this without a support
contract, you need to buy new licenses each time you upgrade.

Ever heard of "FUD"? That's what Oracle is selling you if
you think their support is that bad: fear of not having
support that you don't want because you think it's bad.
Q: Does anyone know of any reliable 3rd party support for
Oracle?
