Dave,>Therefore, I think the short answer on Y2K is that it is neutral at best and probably negative semis as the cost will likely slow business hardware demand.<

Your statement was my original take until we our toured local newspaper and their representatives stated that they were replacing the 486's with new PC's which will be Y2K ready, purchasing the new ones this Summer/Fall and early 1999.

Thanks for you feedback.
