I agree that being labeled a Y2K company isnt helping. Also, being in the DeJager index creates a secondary trading influence such that when the index sells off the pieces (ISLI, VIAS, etc.) get sold off as part of the index. I wish they werent in this index but when the extent of this problem is fully recognized then maybe we will be glad there is an index. Who knows. I posted on the IBM thread a blurb about a mainframe announcement tomorrow. I mentioned a feature that the Symphony G5 machine will have that flags in an error log Y2K problems. It is not a bad feature but it only identifies certain problems and is not a fix or total solution so, though it may get hyped, it is not going to impact anything ISLI does or have any negative effect on their bottom line and in fact, may actually help in the sense that services are then required to go in and fix the problem. So I hope the team at ISLI reviews this announcement and understands how they can take advantage of it.
