1st business day of the Euro going well.

news.bbc.co.uk

A little snip...
The European Commission has said it is "extremely satisfied" with the roll out of euro cash, on the first day that most shops and banks have opened their doors to the new single currency.
The most serious glitch of the day came when all of Austria's cash machines broke down briefly due to "a failure of the central computer's memory system", a spokesman said.
Unsnip....

My main concern is/was USA trade. Lots of USA companies trade in Europe and might not see Euro changeover as "not their job" to oversee. Just thought perhaps some unexpected problems would crop up.

Non so far. Overall, I'm glad the Euro has made a good start.
