Here is one that is starting to move! PINC

This one is a "definite" hold, and completely solid.

Here is some DD received and verified:

mbck.com
planetcity.com

They own the "Millenium Bug Compliance Kit" Software package that is priced at $49.00 or less that will fix "every" PC's Y2K problems. Until now, companies have spent a fortune to become Y2K compliant. This is BIG! Most people do procrastinate and will start thinking about protecting their systems now, especially those that couldn't afford it until now.

PINC also just received their license as a Computer Associates Vendor and will be selling and implementing over 200 Computer Associates products!!!

There is much more.

Some DD:

Planet City offers a unique opportunity as an investment with strong, proven management. The company expects to be profitable by the end of September 1999, and is projecting 15c a share in earnings this year.

The company is involved in all facets of the computer industry. Separate divisions include software development, service, and web development. This is a one-stop solution for any size company.

Terry Dennis became CEO and President of PINC, coming out of retirement after very successful careers with Computer Associates (CA: NYSE) and Via Soft (VIA: NASDAQ). Mr. Dennis is 51 years old, and has the drive and determination to build PINC into a formidable company. His credentials and that of other management can be found on the www.planetcity.com web site.

For the next 4 months Planet City is focusing on the Y2K problem. Their new MBCK 5.0 not only identifies and fixes all problems with a PC, it assists the user in determining and fixing any software Y2K problems that they may have. A free diagnostic can be found at www.mbck.com, and even new PCs should be checked to verify that they are compliant. There is up to a 5% probability that newer PCs are not Y2K compliant. Planet City has introduced two very unique ways of marketing the MBCK.

Planet City recently announced a prestigious association with Computer Associates, whereby the company would be allowed to sell the more then 400 products that CA has. Even more important, CA will steer new clients to PINC for sales and service.

The new web services division, announced last month, was immediately profitable.

Planet City is committed to growth, and with that in mind, is currently evaluating potential acquisitions, to achieve its goals as rapidly as possible.

Planet City has approximately 20 million shares outstanding, and a float of 7 million. Average daily trading volume for the year is approximately 300,000 shares. The company is currently non-reporting
but has filed two audited Financial Reports. Another is underway in preparation to becoming a Fully Reporting Company.

Planet City offers investors the chance to become involved with a dynamic company with tremendous potential. Both the short term prospects, as well as long term, look very favorable for PINC.

***ALSO: Here is an excerpt from a press release 8/25/99:

SEDONA, Ariz., Aug. 25 /PRNewswire/ -- Planet City Corp. (OTC Bulletin Board: PINC - news) is pleased to announce a marketing agreement with Cable Print Network Marketing, Inc. (CPNM) to promote Planet City's recently released Millennium Bug Compliance Kit (MBCK). The product will be advertised on several web sites that exceed 250 million hits per month combined. It will also be advertised in over 60 publications, on a weekly, or monthly basis, depending on the company's periodical schedule. ``We evaluated nine other PC Y2K solutions, and Planet City's was superior to them all. That's why we formed a joint venture with Planet City. As a partner in this venture, we will provide Planet City with an integrated multimedia marketing campaign at no cost. If a competing Y2K Kit tried to undertake a campaign of this magnitude, it would cost them millions of dollars,' explains Beryl J. Wolk, CEO of CPNM. ``By having CPNM as a partner, Planet City has a tremendous cost advantage over its competitors.'

Planet City's President and CEO, Terry Dennis, said, ``The power of CPNM's multimedia marketing program is truly amazing. Beryl is a very dynamic and extremely creative marketing genius who spent years developing contacts and creating joint ventures in all the right places. Our MBCK promotional campaign will leverage those contacts and partnerships to get maximum exposure for our product.'

Planet City is introducing MBCK to various marketing outlets that have joint ventures with CPNM, both on the Internet and in publications. For example, a full page advertisement is going out to one million college students this month.

The Millennium Bug Compliance Kit tests for and corrects the Year 2000 problem in PC compatibles. The Y2K impacts three areas of a PC: hardware, software, and user data files. The MBCK provides a solution for all three date sensitive areas.

PC owners who wish to ``test drive' the MBCK for free to see if their computer is Y2K compliant may download the full product from mbck.com. It is recommended that even newer computers undergo this free diagnostic.
