Gary,

<<"There are lots of companies out there that still need to buy our
products to become year 2000 compliant," Pfeiffer said, answering a
question.

He said first half demand from large companies would decline but be
taken up in the second half by smaller businesses, which had left
millennium computer bug compliance efforts to the last minute. The
fourth quarter would be boosted by seasonal consumer buying.>>

Of course, he neglected to add, Q1 2000 spending gets a big post from lawfirms upping their compute power to handle the deluge of new business ... but I guess that would have been a "forward-looking statement" <g>
