Hi there Opps well it would be a strange would if we all aggreed on some thing. I for one hate "work" incroshing/braking into my play time and would find a incress in "business/enterprise" a put off. There are meny companeys/orgnisations offing 24/7 support to business out there (novel, red hat and ubuntu) to name but 3.
I would encoughe Mark if he is wared about something breaking at work to get a good service plan with a company like the ones menchend above.
