Re: <<1. Is this just the beginning of the pipeline for big deals>> I think this is the case... <<2. Is Y2K helping or hurting>> Probably helping. With a big installed base (80,000 or so) and a chance to pimp some business from accounts who have older versions of competitors' products, I think it'll be a net plus. For the most part, the base WW customer purchases don't come out of the IT budget but rather process control/plant budgets and/or capital projects for plant upgrades/additions (there are some that are exceptions), thus they shouldn't be dramatically affected by resources being sucked into glass-house Y2K crisis management. Any IT money sent to the plant to address Y2K would probably be icing.
