You have great service, obviously.  Not everyone provides service that good.

For instance, at my last place of employment, the provider was
MCI-Worldcomm.  Their guarantee was 95% uptime I believe.  HA!  I believe we
averaged about 2 link failures for our WAN/Internet connections per week.
This was over a period of several months also.

Their service may be better now, I really can't speculate.

My .02,
    Everyone keeps talking about what the ISP does when the link breaks.  I
have
a full T1 from  DIGEX (now a division of Intermedia).  I've only had 5
minutes
of down time in almost 2 years.  They're support is super too.
