5 9's (99.999% uptime) we can go through with the math.  It's a
great marketing term that's usually meaningless.  17 minutes per
month of downtime.  It can be done.  For lots of money. It's
unwarranted (99% of the time customers spit out the term "5 9s").
hmmm....
tell me, if i�m wrong, but:
365 days a year -> (*24=) 8760 hours -> (*60=) 525600 minutes ->
(*60=) 31536000 seconds.
99.999% uptime -> (*.99999) 31535684.64 seconds uptime
-> 315.36 seconds downtime (per year)
-> 26 seconds (rounded) per month

??? 26 seconds <-> 17 minutes ???
