Andrew, >>When the Y2K stuff is done, companies will spend a bit more than usual to migrate away from proprietary platforms, but as I mentioned, it wont carry high margins.<<

Wouldn't the reverse would be true? One of the significant reasons for the high cost of the y2k fix is that many companies are taking the opportunity to migrate from old systems sooner rather than later, replacing them with new, y2k compliant applications.

So after 2000 it seems likely that the older/proprietary systems that have not been replaced will be there largely as a result of a decision to keep (and fix) them.
