One major, four or five minor and three or four hotfixes. Schedule a 
day for the major, half a day each for the rest.

Each product will need to be tested and implemented so half a day for 
each major release. If you modify the products of course it will be 
longer.

Very little. Pack it when it gets too big (once a week) or set a cron 
to do it... oh sorry, NT... set a AT command to do it.

Yeah.. rebooting NT every 4 days. :)
