It's easy enough to edit NT DNS files by hand. They live in
\winnt\system32\dns. You have to change both version numbers and stop/start
the DNS service for your changes to take effect.

Mostly the flexibility of editing the files by hand, and the fact that you
can easily move your DNS to a Unix box if you want to. Not that it is all
that hard to move NT DNS over to Unix.... I really like the NT DNS interface
for looking things up, but it is a huge pain to make more than 5 edits. JMO
