Well, here's to a major non-event. Cheers. Thank goodness. I chalk it up to a lot of hard work over the course of the past 5 years by a lot of people (some of coming very recently), and a smidgeon (well, maybe more than a smidgeon) of media hype. Again. In any event, let's hope everyone's Y2K is no more eventful than the last year. plop, - paul
Next 99 hours? I'm more concerned about the first billing cycle.. Afterall, there has to be data to refference before there can be a problem..

Many of our clients and customers flushed both A/P and becasue their clients did the same thing, A/R is flushed as well. Cashflow-wise, this was a good thing for us, we have a *bunch* of checks to deposit on Monday, from what are normally slow-pay customers <grin>. We always keep A/P current so the flush wasn't necessary for us<g>. The down side is that most of our vendors also flushed their A/R, so we have "early returns" on a lot of bills <sigh>. Basically, I think that the overall outstanding float went to near-zilch this week-end. This may have an economic impact.
