The platform was an old IBM architecture from the 1970s... used to be
called the System/38... was completely reinvented in 1988 and renamed
the AS/400... and most recently renamed iSeries, shortly before
its untimely death, considering its 99.998 percent uptime.

Hmmm, what does 5 days of downtime do to a yearly uptime percentage?
