If your CEO insists on spending money on a service contract, then go ahead and get a service contract. If you're running a server than has to have five nines up-time, then you'd better pay to have somebody guaranteed on-site in 60 minutes from when the phone rings. For what I do (SW development) I invariably get better/quicker results from mailing lists and Usenet than I ever did from commercial support. -- Grant Edwards grante Yow!
