You are right about most of these Y2k business will dry up soon after 2000, that is why I searched hi and low for a company that could use Y2k to build upon an already existing business, seemed logical to me. What I found was TPRO, a system integrater who is using Y2k to get them in the door and build upon a database of factories. This will build the relationships for alot of business well past 2000. Their existing business is growing rapidly without the aid of Y2k. For Y2k they have created a cd toolset which guides you through the database to check for compliancy. Great concept, strong core business, and virtually no competition. There is a great thread here on SI you should check out if you're interested.

Sorry, didn't mean to go off topic twice in the same night! Just love to spread the word about TPRO, haven't come across a more compelling story like this in a long time. Can't contain myself.

Richard,

I hit a 2+ bagger in IMRS earlier this year and am now in SPNSF. Their thread is at: Subject 10705

SPNSF is in client server software and consulting services which should keep them going after the year 2000 thing is finished. They have recently licensed special Y2K software tools to major companies.
