As mentioned previously, there are a lot of variables that effect this=20
claim.

A lot of businesses include this sort of data in their quarterly reports.=20
Some of your questions might be answered by
reports like this one =3D>=20
http://www.level3.com/newsroom/pressreleases/2007/20070426.html
Additionally, I'd do a Google search for terms like "System Availability"=20
and include some Tier 1 providers to see
what kind of data comes back. Then just go from there.
Best regards,
Tim Rainier
