    Hi,
    I am 49 years old. I find the new front page extremely difficult to read because it is light blue text on a medium blue background. I wonder if it would be possible to make the colors more standardly readable? I had to use a "zap colors" macro to read it at all and that made the page look rather barren

    thanks so much

      Yes, your correct only contacts within the system are available for adding as contacts.
      You will need to review how you are keeping your customers informed. At any stage you can email the SR to yourself and then forward that to any additional interested parties.

    Is the site suppose to be this slow? It often takes 20-30 seconds for a response, and about 1 in 10 clicks never return.

      No it should not be slow, please make use of the contact form below to advise Sun about how slow you are seeing the wiki site. If you are saying Member Support Center is slow, please advise how long Login takes, then when you select the Create SR how long does that take to appear and we can investigate to find out why the application is slow.
