What kills me is what they have told the public. The lost a "core 
switch". I don't know if they actually mean network switch or not but 
I'm pretty sure any of us that work on an enterprise environment know 
how to factor N+1 just for these types of days. And then the backup 
solution failed? I'm not buying it either.
