>>Wonder when auditors will start qualifying reports for risk<< couldn't pass commenting on this point. All annual reports have co's saying risk/cost to fix is immaterial. I think that is bs. Given the kinds of things we both know auditors sign off on, nfw will they do any qualifying <g>

Hey Dan, long time - no see. <<China's central bank governor warned on Tuesday the weak yen was having a severe impact on Beijing's foreign trade, focusing attention once again on a Chinese pledge not to devalue its currency. ''The Chinese government has repeatedly denied such a move but it looks like fund managers are not buying the story,'' said Alex Tang, research director at Core Pacific-Yamaichi International. Robert Sassoon, research head at SG Securities said their current view is the yuan is relatively safe but the yen had a risk element. ''If the yen does depreciate -- if it goes beyond 150 -- then we will obviously review the situation.''>> Re: y2k - it appears no pre-Pentium PC is compliant due to chip sets. Perhaps that's what is driving Dell et al sales for now.
