The numbers are from Gartner Group in a document dated 10/98.  It's a one page
deal....I forget what they call their little studies...I'm looking for my
hardcopy but can't find it....

I attended an IBM presentation which quoted a Gartner survey.  Although I
do not remember the exact numbers, ere is my recollection.  (Note these
numbers were read, not shown on foils.)

Number of customer surveyed:       250
Uptime requirements                24x7
AS/400 Unplaned Downtime           5 hours/year
NT Unplanned Downtime              220 hours/year (approximately 10 days)

As I said, these numbers are based on recollection.
