The disk defragmenting utility is another story....Took me two days to defrag a 9GB drive on Win98,with several restarts. Several pauses while it writes to a log file, then restarts due to it's own "disk writes", even when nothing else is running! What crap! Any windows FS is garbage. I can run a workstation for years and never get any more than .1% frag. (I do think Symantec's speedisk works better for windows.) As for slow reboots on UNIX systems...doesn't really hurt when you reboot once a year, or never. I know companies who have IPX/IPC and older Suns that have never been rebooted! Used as a NIS or DNS sever. Maintenance? - just occasionally dust. JavaGuy
