Hi Peter: Here are a few references regarding the Y2K v. Microsoft question. ====================================================================== (Year 2000 news, 01/22/98 06:15:20 PM) Microsoft Web site to address Y2K problems Thomas Hoffman -----cut----- In the past, Microsoft told customers that all its products were year 2000-compliant. Those statements were not only inaccurate, they "put a lot of pressure on IT managers who were trying to put together budgets for desktop conversions," Moore said. -----cut----- Matusow said Microsoft's core products are all compliant -- including the latest releases of Windows 95, Windows NT, Windows for Workgroups, Microsoft's Internet products and Office suite. -----cut----- www2.computerworld.com ====================================================================== ComputerWorld Articles computerworld.com ====================================================================== Microsoft Lends Advice to Congress on Year 2000 Issue -----cut----- Microsoft's products have long been ready for the year 2000, and we are committed to working with our customers -- governments, businesses, and individuals - to make the transition into the next millennium a smooth one. -----cut----- microsoft.com ====================================================================== I guess Microsoft assumes that everybody knows (assumes) that their products are Y2K compliant. If it turns out that their products are not Y2K compliant then they will soon be in big trouble. Regards, Elmo
