More info on Y2K non-compliance

p. 7 · Read in the full issue

The article “Will your business survive the 21st century?” is timely (or perhaps a bit late). I suspect that most of your read ers are little involved in computers other than PCs.

Most PCs, and most PC software is headed for Y2K compatibility. If you can do a follow-on report identifying some of the PC applications which are known to be not Y2K compliant, it would be welcome news to the most of us who read PIM.

I found your choice of photograph to accompany the article interesting. It is a picture of the monitor of the only PC hard ware designed from the beginning (1984) to not have a problem with the Y2K bug the Apple Macintosh.
