Perhaps, Windows2000 will provide the stimulus for an increase in PC sales.

A snippet from a Jim Seymour article on TheStreet.com.....

And Matt, a computer consultant whose name and company references I'll delete in the interest of his future employability, figures he knows what's waiting in the wings to seize this opportunity:

Compliments on your well-written, insightful and balanced article. As a computer consultant (and Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer who does not preach Microsoft) working for large clients in the [blank] area, I can tell you that [blank] and [blank] (note: both Fortune 500 companies) do not have Office 2000 or Windows 2000 on their sites yet, and at one, we are talking about 2Q 2000 plans right now. Heck, we just got all of our NT 3.51 servers upgraded three months ago.
Windows 2000 will be Microsoft's undoing. I hear the reason for the rewrite (80% new) was partially to eliminate the royalty checks it pays to IBM (IBM:NYSE) for cowriting the kernel.
