I also get only 25 articles

And I can't believe the product drop downs at the bottom which don't limit you to the products you select but just change the weightings for the search, what on earth is that all about. I *still* don't want rdb results.

P.S. I've just worked out what its all about of course, there is a query optimizer for metalink and the products get passed as hints thus changing the weightings used by the optimizer in determining its execution plan.
