<< I guess I missed whatever it was you were trying to point out. >> The article was relevant from the very first line. If you don't think the resources needed to address the Year 2000 problem are in short supply , consider the following: Mainframe giants IBM and Electronic Data Systems Corp. are licensing other vendors' software to find and fix the date problem in host applications. Also: "The fact that the mainframe's inventor and its chief promulgator are looking outside their own walls for Year 2000 expertise is an indication that although demand for these solutions is going through the roof, the supply of resources is nearing rock bottom, experts said". "Only about 20 percent of companies have done much about the Year 2000 problem, which means about 80 percent haven't done anything," Doesn't this sound like money in DDIM's pocket? Any tool that can speed up the process [of finding and fixing the date problem] is like gold right now."
