Off course. IIRC most recent DOSes are Y2K compatible and will survived till
2099? Most likely problems will be in application level, if the designer using
only two digits to store year data and forgot to add offset to accomodate
millenium change. Try input 11/03/01 or 11/03/2001 at your spreadsheet,
dbase, payroll, email programs, etc., and see if they are Y2K compliant ;-)
Some older BIOSes do have problem with year 2000, though; but should be
fixable with a simple TSR program.
