I spoke to nick from prgmr. He says last outage he is aware of was 16 days ago (crock), which means that the server possibly was never down. It may have even been a routing issue at your ISP. However, rule of thumb, jump onto IRC, and you'll get better support on Linode/prgmr anyway. If you need uptime, get multiple VPS's, but for $8 a month, honestly, you can't expect the admins to respond immediately. You pay double the prices anywhere else..
