Mary,
Thanks for giving us here at No Wonder the opportunity to answer your
question. I am Nevin of the No Wonder Mac Staff.
Apple Computer is not concerned with the Y2K problem as your apple computer
is ready and able to work well into the next century. To test this assertion
set your clock to 11:59:00 and watch your computer roll over to 00:00:01 and
keep on ticking. The concern should be with the software suppliers, Microsoft,
Quicken, Adobe, etc. etc... They have to make there software Y2K compliant.
They will probably release a fix thru there websites if one is necessary. I
hope this answers your question, let me know if I can be of further assistance.
Best Regards,
Nevin
