Jeffrey:

Excellent point...like a trip back in time for those of us who cut our teeth on CP/M, Dbase II, Visicalc, A>,etc.

Another sector that may get hit hard would be all those non-profits/charitable organizations out there; many of the small ones, at least, probably still use tons of "home brew" applications and little or no documentation and the developer who has changed jobs 10x since then.

I follow one maillist targeted towards that sector, consists of lawyers, CPA's, state regulatory folk, etc. I may do a post to that group as I don't recall any mention of Y2K issues in the several months I've followed it.
