This is sad. Perhaps the lightest trading day of the year, all those fancy new servers with all that excess capacity, and I still can't get into the servers. Got into orders7 now, but EXTREMALLY slow! I get very good "ping" numbers (90ms) and no dropped packets, which would suggest that the problem is the server. And, yes, as others have reported here, once I did finally get in (had to go to orders4) and thought I finally got a portfolio listing, what I had was a blank page! By examinging the page source, apparently I got a "technical difficulty" page, but it rendered as a blank page.
