Joe,RE: Your "Y2K Stocks Should Boom in 1Q 1998" Post In case some people missed the AnswerThink, AON & TPRO connection .EXCERPTS ".... by the end of the first quarter 1998 most Year 2000 companies will find themselves loaded with Y2K business. Potential customers who are "sitting on the fence" and reluctant to commit funding to Millennium remediation will be moved to action both by the greater Year 2000 oversight activity of the SEC, and by the new Y2K vigilance of investment analysts and fund managers. As they are moved to action, these companies will of course have to reach for their checkbooks." "We believe that this is likely to result in a "Y2K spending spree", the beneficiaries of which will be both Year 2000 tools and service companies, although service companies stand to benefit most of all. This is because we expect that as time goes on, the Year 2000 market will demand more and more end-to-end, system-wide Year 2000 project management solutions rather than specific tools for specific systems or projects." "A number of service companies are gearing up for this new business. AnswerThink , a consulting group based in whose Year 2000 Program "c.era" is headed by former Gartner Group Y2K guru Kevin Schick, is signing up partners left and right. Companies like AON Risk Services and Keane are doing the same."
