Ok, I think my ranting brain clouded my thinking.
I agree that getting to 99.something takes good design, redundant hardware, etc. etc.
But would you agree that the difference between 99.99 and 99.999 (that's 52 minutes a year vs. 5 minutes a year) is mostly mindset?
And yeah, we have a few Stratus server systems in our data center, but in the end we found them to be no more reliable than a HA cluster of HP boxes and a good change control process.
