Since we're on the topic...


<The Y2K Problem>


What will result 1 second after December 31, 11:59:59? That's right. =
Almost every computer in the world will become dazed and confused. Right =
now, computer scientests are working on the problem, and are analizing =
the effects. How will this be solved? BIOS Companies, such as American =
Megatrends (AMBIOS), will develop programs which adjust the internal =
clock. Yup. BIOS Companies. Why? If you remember, BIOS's are built into =
the computer before anything is done. Without a BIOS, you got nothing. =
What do I think? I think it will just be a reset of the internal clock, =
and an addition of the number 2. 1999 will be reset to 0000, then just =
add the 2 to the thousands place, and get 2000. You'll be good to go =
'till 3000. The answer may be more complex. Who knows. All we can do is =
wait.
