tidbits from second or third sources. Take it with a grain of salt.
(1) certain big companies have developed their own tools and are remediating their code to make it y2k compliant! Some are testing the remidiated code! IT professionals are busy!
(2) posters in this thread were complaining about (the lack of) contracts. One company found out that their contract services have problem getting contract termination dates beyond 1/1/2000. They deal with tons of contracts. (Why have not we heard about problems with mortgage companies and banks?)
(3) a spokesperson in another company says: the BIOS problem with PC motherbaords (2 digit year) did not stop in 1996. PC's produced after 1996 also exhibit problems. One company is replacing all of their desktop PC's of their employees (about 30000+) next year, connected to (guess what?) Win NT server with Internet Explorer.
(4) pay attention to your financial records and bank statements, especially in 1999. The End. Ram
