96% uptime would mean nearly 4 hours per month down. I have never experiemced anything that bad using the nastiest crappiest no-name server parts..... unless you want to make a point, like some authors do. Then you say the hard disk failed and it took a week to get and install a new ones, so the downtime was 24x7 hours. In reality, if your service support doesn't stock all the important bits for quick replacement, it provides no service at all.Steve,
I have typically found Linux and even SCO Openserver on x86 servers have better up time than the fully redundant machines from Stratus. Their hardware may not fall over, but their OS does. When it does it takes 1 to 2 hours to reboot.

Like I said this was from memory and so may have been inacurate.. I probably should have looked it up before hand..
As it turns out it should probably have been 99.6% availablility.. A quick look on Google came up with the following details..
