OT

It was the Gartner Group that gave us the $600 Billion dollar Y2K problem. And if you dare to ask, that money was well spent.

I am reminded of that old joke:

Every day I walk down the main street of Lodi, California, to get to work. And every day there is this same guy on the same street corner, snapping his fingers.

FINALLY, one day I ask him, what are you doing??

He says: I'm keeping away the Wild Elephants.

I say: You friggin' idiot, there isn't a wild elephant for Six Thousand Miles!!!!

He says: Well, it works, doesn't it.

>>>>>>>Gartner Group who claims that 1 in 4 computers will have a problem with Win2K<<<<<< If this is true there is going to be a heavy demand for new PCs. Compaq has some good products. I think businesses are waiting for the new release to buy desktops. We should see an excellent 2nd quater for the box makers.
