Wayne,

I agree about production rollouts in the enterprise domain as auditors do not like moving targets in general and would hate to redo the Y2K certification. However, h/w and s/w continues to be bought for initial test implementation before Y2K and production rollouts after Y2K in accordance with the time honored tradition of multi-stage rollouts in the enterprise domain. Budgets for that - previously frozen - as now freeing up. So, as far as the vendors are concerned, Y2K is a matter of the past IMHO because of the delay in the pipeline from initial sale to final implementation.

In any case, the world is not going to come to an end because of Y2K, at least in the G7 countries. Now try to convince the merry mythsters that such is the case. <sigh>

-BGR.
