Wiseowl, >>"SUNW and other hardware and software companies might get hurt some due to companies spending more money on year 2000 problems and reducing the amount of money left for new hardware and software. Companies will have more personnel costs than usual. Though I see a limiting factor to the down side is that companies will have to run test systems which will need the appropriate hardware and software before putting year 2000 certified systems into production.<< The last part of your paragraph above does indeed happen. Amdahl has a subsidiary named DMR, which specializes in year 2K consulting, and other computer consulting. Quite often, when they get a large contract for legacy system Y2K fixing, we get orders for one or two or more mainframes. Same thing happen for Sun? Tony
