May I ask help for a friend on another list, who is concerned that her pc is not Y2K compliant? She is considering getting a new pc for that reason, and another friend offered the advice below. Is this really true? I somehow thought it would be more of a problem than she suggests ! Friend B writes to friend A in part: >Computers themselves are not compliant or not, as far as I can figure out. >It is the software that is the villain, I think. And if your software is >not Y2K compliant, what problems will that cause you? It will record the >year as 00 or 01. ...... >But find out just what problems a home computer will have >if it isn't compliant. I truly doubt their severity or importance. ..... Any comments will be welcome and will be shared with friends A and B :-) Thanks!
