I work at a trucking company as a driver, and every day around lunch
they announce over the loudspeakers to everyone in the company who uses
the computers that they are rebooting, so they can quit what they are
doing. Of course they use Winblows. It's sick how unproductive that
is. Any unix type system, once set up, runs 24/7.

Assuming the PCs reboot daily, you can put a line in their

do that automatically.
Something like
del .DS_store* ._*
in the appropriate directories.
If they're rebooting their servers daily, they're doing something
seriously wrong!
Not at all.
*Microsoft* actually recommends that Windows-based servers be rebooted
daily.
They started recommending this during the NT days, in order to improve
"overall server stability". The recom continues today: just last
week, a MSgeek showed one of my clients a new two-page MS document
that said that his new server should be rebooted every day. It listed
everything from general reliability to network performace as reasons.
Let's face it -- "secure" and "reliable" are just not in the top 100
reasons IT folx put Windows on servers.
