So what would you say the odds of an IMS failure are? 10%, 20%, 30%...
The reason Mike didn't quote a % is because there ain't one to be had.

The problem with a poll, as has been discussed on this issue before, is that you won't get a true representation of the problem because most people don't have an issue, and they won't be paying attention and responding.
