Windows 2000 doesn't need a reboot (neither Server, nor Professional), however the applications do. And since you're running 'client apps' like MS Office, etc. on a server, you have to reboot the server. That's the main difference between a Win2K TS and Win2K on almost any other server. Most developers simply assume they're programming for a PC that is shutdown every night, so why should they bother about memory-leaks and longterm stablity.
