Jeff- Basically what that means is "after all IT money is drained to pay for Y2K over the next couple of years, ERP will finally take off." Wouldn't it be nice if certain Y2K companies could have ERP solutions ready and waiting to sell to their burgeoning client base? I think I know one that plans to. Now if they can just convince corporate America they can do it. If they just had a PR firm that was up to the task... It almost looks like a well thought out strategy for the future <ggg>

Oh well, so much for "Remediated in the USA." Press Release For Immediate Release 12th October, 1998 US Treasury Beats the Bug! US Treasury becomes world's largest customer for Y2K fix with record-breaking purchase of Millennium Bug Toolkit™ Computer Experts (UK) Ltd, (www.computerexperts.co.uk), the world-leader in the field of PC Hardware Millennium compliance, has today announced a record-breaking deal with the US Treasury which will provide a 150,000-seat license for its award-winning Millennium Bug Toolkit™ - making this the largest deal of its kind worldwide, to date. "To say that we are pleased is an understatement," says Ian Partington, managing director, Computer Experts (UK) Ltd. "What could be a better endorsement of our product than a record-breaking order from an organisation as large as the US Government? It seems that the reality of the Millennium Bug has finally begun to sink in around the world, and we are very excited to offer a foolproof solution amidst all of the hype out there. We will remain on the front lines to help the US Government - and anyone else - solve the problems associated with the Millennium Bug ." Almost immediately after receiving and evaluating the first sample of the product, a consultant acting on behalf of the US government requested that an additional 100 copies be sent as part of a larger trial. After four months of stringent testing and comparison with other products, they then contacted Computer Experts and placed the order for 150,000 units. Computer Experts has now signed a 'blanket agreement' which will provide licenses to use the Millennium Bug Toolkit™ for every PC in the US Secret Service, Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and parts of US Customs. The product was dispatched within 7 days of the order being placed. 4X Incorporated of Woburn MA is the master distributor of Millenium Bug Toolkits™ in the US and Canada.
