Emory, I develop and sell software. Most of the machines I've tested using standard Y2K tests are compliant. I don't see a lot of my clients being forced to buy new systems. Even the 486's I've tested are compliant. Most of the software my clients use is of the nature that Y2K compliance will not be an issue for them. Word processors don't really care. Most of the spread sheet packages have dealt with the issue to a depth that the average user will not really care about the possible bugs heavy duty finance people may consider an issue. With the exception of accounting software--getting bills paid, money collected, financials done at month end.... Most small and medium businesses will not be more than slightly inconvenienced by what their software will or will not do when the dreaded day comes upon us. Talk of disaster is, in my opinion, a bit over blown. It makes a good hustle, the naive can be scared by technical jargon into spending large sums of money, but in reality most people have about as much chance of a major problem as they do of dying from the plague. regards, mnmuench
