To: Kathy Knight-McConnell (Raging Bull thread): Thank you for relaying the information from Rudy Rupak. I didn't know there was a Raging Bull thread for PINC. I don't follow Raging Bull (or the Yahoo threads, for that matter) unless somebody points out a specific post to me. Your post over there that was subsequently copied here got my attention, so I briefly reviewed the Raging Bull posts following it. In one of those following posts, you made this comment: The main point is that the software performed the diagnostic and fix properly. TEDennis' only comments to the negative side were about typos and minor things, not the important stuff. I don't consider the fact that they left off the creation date/time from the files list as a "minor thing". That is "important stuff". To me, leaving off that information indicates they didn't think through the whole process that must occur after the list is produced. If they had gone through an actual "remediation" scenario themselves, they would have (should have?) immediately recognized the shortcoming of the solution they delivered. There are many products available that solve the hardware problem. Because there are only a few "hardware fix techniques" possible, they will all succeed or fail at about the same rate. The "best of breed" Y2K solution will be the one that best solves a PC user's entire Y2K exposure. In my opinion, the software side of the equation is more difficult (operationally) than the hardware side. Thus, the products with the best software "fix" will succeed at a better rate than their competitors. I'm anxiously awaiting access to their "COTS Database" so I can continue with my evaluation. It will be interesting to see the process that must be used to correlate the list they produced with the information available on the database, and to see what must be done once a correlation is obtained.
