>>Another reason why Ruettgers and company have stated Y2K shouldn't bite them. If companies HAVE to add computer/storage resources to keep growing, they'll find a way. Also, like I've said before, storage is not a very likely place to find Y2K problems especially of customers buy new storage boxes, which are sure to have been made Y2K compliant.<< I agree. The whole idea that companies won't spend money on storage because of Y2K is ludicrous. EMC sells, what amounts to, electronic filing cabinets. A filing cabinet doesn't care what is in it and it doesn't care what year it is. If anything, Y2K will boost sales as many companies are building parallel, redundant systems as software test beds as well as to provide a data safety net on the off-chance that some outside influence might hurt them. The fact is, having "too much data storage" is a little like having "too much money". A self-correcting problem. Bob
