In the Time magazine we got today, on about pages 10-11, Microsoft has
a big ad discussing "five 9s" reliability. Their punch line is
"Today Starbucks, FreeMarkets and MortgageRamp, an affiliate of GMAC
Commercial Mortgage, are using Windows 2000 Server-based systems
designed to deliver 99.999% server uptime."
^^^^^^^^^^^
No claim that they actually deliver that uptime, of course.
