>>>"BankAmerica has, essentially, one system," says Howard Adams, >>a Year 2000 consultant with Productivity Solutions of Phoenix. >>And what kind of whacky tabaccy are they growing in Phoenix these days? >>This is dated experience, but at one time BoA was a big VM shop I >>believe... could be gone by now, but pretty unlikely. >>A piece of them also has claimed to be the world's biggest NOMAD user. >>... "one system"... riiiiiight. David, according to the article, Adams "set up BankAmerica's first program to deal with the Year 2000 problem and served as the firm's first Y2K project coordinator." So presumably he knows something about their systems. I guess it depends on how you define "essentially" as in "essentially one system". I don't know anymore about them than what was in the article. IMHO if their systems all talk to each other and exchange data correctly they are ahead of the game. Gina
