So now the guy can go to lunch during the 
downtime and almost make it back.

The trick is failover.  The problem of 
attacking an unrealistic requirement 
with a simple solution is cost:  what 
solution makes it realistic.  Like many 
out of the box solutions, you have 
to redefine the requirement.  No one 
system typically leaves you with one free 
lunch.  Two might.

Oops.  Musta misread the % sign or something.

Ignore previous flames.

Unless somebody promises you 99.9999% reliability, in which case beware.
