I2: Re: "It makes sense to me. If, however, there is a corporate reluctance to purchase new software prior to the century date change, doesn't that mean that the floodgates on sales will be opened in early 2000?"

I would think it would mean an increase in sales to more normal levels. This whole "floodgate" or "meltup" stuff is just the other side of "nuclear winter." They are all overstatements IMO. If one believes in the "meltup" scenario, one also must believe in the "nucelar winter" scenario because you can't have a "meltup" without a "nuclear winter" all things being equal.
