RE: TI-H: Re: y2k
Well I have several things to say.
I hope Windows 95 / 98 are rendered useless (I hate those Operating
Systems). However I know all my Linux and Windows NT 4.0 machines will work
fine into the next year.
And about year 10,000... I don't care, I'll be gone long before then! I'm
more worried about the United States having Social Security around when I
retire. Better start that IRA just in case...
