Scott: Is NT 4.0 Y2K compliant or "will be?"

"We're seeing customers look at NT 4.0 and 5.0 as part of the Year 2000 solution because both of these, like all Microsoft products, will be Year 2000-compliant."

Microsoft isn't exactly shouting it from the roof tops.

Hi Scott

I can't get a straight answer either, from talking to real, live people or looking through web pages. If MS *were* compliant, handled active rollover, leap years etc. with NT4 you can bet that they'd shout about it. Have you ever known MS to keep something like that quiet? Nope, there's something in the offing there, and they're not saying what their plans are.
