Well, just from an averaging standpoint, 99.999% is 1 minus 10^-5. So, you need to be up for 2 x 10^5 days; roughly 547.6 years, to have it AVERAGE to 99.999% (for you). Regards Marshall Eubanks Alan Clegg wrote:
For the second day in a row, Cingular Wireless has no service in the 919, 910, and 704 areacodes. The customer support specialist that I talked to this morning tells me that there are 48 sites down, and offered no information as to a time-to-repair.
Not being a statistics major, how long do you have to be up to fix 2 days back to 99.999%?
If you are trying to get in touch with me today, just don't bother. ;-)
