"Availability of support" in particular competent support is exactly  
why you shouldn't continue bothering with Extreme.  Cisco has a lot  
of incompetent support, but competent support does exist and can be  
found in their organizations.

We have more than a dozen crucial BGP-announcement-affecting bugs  
that Extreme doesn't have the vaguest clue how to solve, including  
the inability to prevent re-announcement of a default route even with  
an explicit filter denying it.  No self-respecting NSP should bother  
with the wallowing shell of a company that Extreme is today.
