<Y2K deadlines passed without..incident> Not true! I have an article showing 75% of all companies have had malfunctions of one kind or another. True, the vast majority of them were very minor, but the % is quite staggering!

In any case, the numbers and the seriousness are totally irrelevant in terms of how disruptive y2k will be next year, as the embedded systems malfunctions/shutdowns will be the real killer, and they won't start until December. And, the fixes for them in many, if not most cases will be staggeringly more difficult, in some cases completely impossible, compared to codes.
