I think you're right that its too early for the market crashing because of the Y2K problem.

However, IMO, it will take a hit once Y2K hits. It is a serious problem, a lot more serious than anyone could imagine. I'm in the computer field, I know the potential. I work on Y2K fixes at many Fortune 500 companies.

I wouldn't worry about it until it gets closer. But I would think about it when it gets closer. Some companies are going to lose a lot of their business, if not all of it ... Steve

PS - Take a look at the Y2K article in yesterday's USA today, in reference to the telephone companies. I found it very interesting!
