Is this part of the G.O. move or just that worthless ourasa.com that toolbag BL bragged about with its 99.blah blah% reliability?

The OP is not talking about the www... Just about every flight originating at around 9 am this morning was delayed at least an hour with an "IT-failure of COMM/Computer Equipment" delay code.

Don't worry, Inc. just sold your "spare" servers on eBay. They wanted you to have the same computer operational capacity as SKYW. We crash all the time, I think its because of all the dispatchers posting on F/I at the same time.

We don't "crash all the time"...once every couple of months at the most and we're back up within an hour.

When you're talking about a system network with the magnitude and complexity that any airline of significant size runs, these things will happen. Considering the constantly running archive process of: dispatch releases, ACARS data, pax/res information, the plot, and crew sked data and the millions of extremely dynamic pieces of data that are transferred back and forth every second of the day...all of which is being sent in triplicate to thousands of users...it's a damn miracle we stay running all day. Servers will go down and, oftentimes, it is just a connection error on the other end...not on our side.
