Warm resetting a Mac

[James Austin]

Hi folks,

Since we have been having a quite in depth discussion about Windows  
recently, I've been wondering if you need to reboot a Mac quite  
regularly.

I always found with Windows that if I re-re-booted my machine it  
would  it would run a little more smoothly. Is this necessary on a  
Mac? I have not switched off my Mac or re-booted it since i got it  
back from the store back at the end of March? I have closed the lid  
for it to go to sleep though.

Hope my question makes sense?

Best Wishes

James
