FYI....

In an article published in Network World, Greenwich Mean Time, a testing
firm, found that 93% of 1996 and pre-1996 BIOSes do not roll over
successfully to 2000 or account for the fact that 2000 is a leap year.

The "out of the box" 3.12 version of Netware, according to Novell, is not
year 2000 compliant.

According to Microsoft, none of their DOS versions require upgrade,
although they do recommend upgrading all of their software to version
released in 1997 or later.
