Pierre:

I wonder about your purpose in this line of discussion. Are you a) pushing shares in one of the companies with a year 2000 patch, or b) holding shorts on Pyng?

Personnel costs make up more than 80% of health care budgets. The amount that is spent on health care products is a small budget item and and is watched closely but rarely comes under major attack. Two points you should know about the FAST1 - 1) in the hospital environment, it will be used instead of central lines, which are of an equivalent price; 2) The savings in terms of health care costs because of improved patient outcome will be significant, so the FAST1 will not be hard to justify in any Emergency Department or Ambulance Service budget. Health care cuts do not mean that critically ill and injured patients will be left to die on a stretcher in the emergency department!

If we followed your line of thinking, anyone with any investment in any company that owns more than one computer (or does business with any company that owns more than one computer) had better bail out now.
The year 2000 bug is a nasty one, but the need for emergency health care is not going to change. Two years from now, when someone needs to get vascular access in a hurry and the peripheral veins have collapsed, they'll be reaching for the FAST1, and we'll be on the way to the bank.
