NATIONAL MANDATE for the Y2K

I just finished reading this entire thread this evening and having made myself enough on Zitel in the past week alone (never thought i'd buy a car for all cash) it is yet amazing to witness the renewed hype over the y2K. The public is about to reckon with a problem, a majority of them never caused, don't understand, can't understand, yet will reach Global proportions similar in financial catastrophe to a world war. This in not investment in something new. It is merely a fix to a horrible problem. Imagine failing federal automated systems (and god forbid military systems) that we won't be able to fix in time without a national mandate. Read the estimate from Leland Freeman in Computerworld who predicts Federal spending alone will surpass $30bn. For years the estimated market for y2K has been $125-$200Bn. This speculation about $400Bn to $600Bn may not prove to be speculation when viewed on a global scale.

If the system proves itself in its ability to automate the conversion of programming code at levels 20% faster than its competitors, it will prove to be the RAMP-up this country and the world will devour. If it is capalbe of even 5% faster than its competitors, it will still be a product that couldn't be more timely. This problem will find companies like Zitel in a large pool of competitors, but who cares when demand is VERTICAL.

See you at all at $100. (after the next split)
