BizWire's competitive advantage in dealing w/ the Y2K crisis:

about.businesswire.com
"The volatility in the investment community impacted by shareholder
activism, corporate governance, global equity markets and the
impending Y2K problem has made the investment process more
complex
and the communications process more critical...We are geared for the
future.

I don't think they are truly prepared for Y2K, they have refused to
obtain software from the defacto Y2K specialists at FBN:
magneticdiary.com

That BW page is kinda goofy, it seems to mention "Business Wire" in
every damn sentence, kinda reminded me of the FBN'ers parody
agreeing not to mention BizWire again, in which they mentioned 'em
throughout their statement...
