They certainly could have used triple redundancy in this case but you make a good point Steve. If I was running a critical business server at SAVVIS I think I'd be asking some tough questions and considering my alternatives. For the travel & tourism sites that run on my server the downtime was more of an inconvenience than a crisis and I wouldn't move the server unless this becomes a regular event.
I'm sure that in response to concerned (irate?) customers they will soon have a plan to make sure this can never happen again.
