Teflon, I think Bill Gates has voted with his money. He just dumped another 5 billion into his philanthropy fund. I think the guy figures the end is near for the bull run of MSFT and he is getting Y2K compliant ;*) -John

MSFT's "outlook is becoming more positive than negative as customers are preferring to upgrade their software vs waiting out the [Y2k] event." I have been planning to buy a new computer prior to Y2K for some time. I am not sure my current model (over 3 yrs old) is totally compliant, and it is near time for an upgrade anyway. Just waiting for as long as possible (but I will buy before y2k) to get the best price/performance deal. Probably there are a lot of others thinking just like me.
