Watch it Tracey - there are a LOT of school districts using HP3000's <g>
 
Anyway - to answer everyone's question - the HP3000 is able to handle the
year change.  The internal clock is capable of going, I believe (and someone
at HP correct me if I'm wrong) they year 2027.
 
Of course, I'll be wealthy beyond my wildest dreams by then, sitting on
a beach, sipping drinks and carousing with wild women ...er...just kidding...
 
As for the third party applications - someone else will have to address
them - but MPE and the HP3000 is solid for the "turn".

I think in 1999 I'll take a sabbattical and teach computers in some local
school district for a year or two.
