MIPS = Million Instructions p/second RDBMS = Relational Database Management System MPP = Massivly Parallel Proccessors BTW Hal was the computer on 2001 and Larry Ellison is the CEO of Oracle, these were just trivia questions that most tech heads would know Oh yeah the biggest issues with Y2K is finding them. You really don't know where a lot of them are in millions and millions of lines in legacy code scattered everywhere. Also, they don't just stand out since much code and data structures is cryptic (i.e. programmer joe in 1979 might have called a date variable DTS, big help huh) In much of legacy code there is no documentation and the people who wrote the systems and were intimate with them are long long gone.
