Microsoft should not take time to address false negative comments or Rumors. Other analyst firms -- including Gartner -- have said in the past that customers could have problems getting Windows 2000 to immediately run with their other data or software types. Glitches are typical when installing new software companywide, analysts point out. In addition, investors may have been scared by recent comments by Dell Computer chief executive Michael Dell regarding Windows 2000.
