No....win2k is much more stable than win NT. Although, sometimes, after
like a couple hundred days, you might want to restart because of
non-micro$oft apps eating up memory or something, I've never had
problems with 2k staying up for long periods of time. 
On a side note, WTF would you want to reboot every night???? Jeez
That's terrible. I would perhaps find a different OS to use for your
servers then....

This is the first time I've seen this in print. Seen it a lot in
practice.
Is this true of win2k also? Or is this just an NT thing?
