A mainframe, maybe. You can do some really sick stuff when you get into
sysplex -- basically driving a mac truck through the machine won't bring
it down... 

But, please tell me how you configure an i5 (even with LPARs) to require
zero downtime. (zero, not almost zero, not 99.999, not hardly-ever-down,
not always up except for...) oh, and don't forget to account for power
failures, airplane-building collisions, and crazy employees with Uzis
when telling me how it's done.
