Most industry observers -- and even Steve Ballmer, Microsoft's executive vice president of sales and support, and Gates' right-hand man -- believe NT 5.0 will not ship until 1999. Ballmer said last weekend it would be "early 1999," but others say the second quarter of the year is more likely.

Gates said he was unsure what effect the year-2000 problem will have on NT 5.0. On one hand, some corporations might decide to go with new, year-2000 compliant software, he said, while others will be "distracted" and delay any purchasing decisions until they solve their millennium problems.
