I'm sure that with proper management etc. a Windows database server can = be reliable. But one thing that puzzles me - when you install a = Microsoft security patch, the dialog box at the end (almost) always says = "Reboot the machine now." I religiously do that since all of my Windows = databases can be brought down (they're used for development.) What do = people do with a production database server?
