Remeber first that 925, 935 and 949 is end of support soon and they will
not be tested on year 2000.

See http://www.hp.com/gsy/year2000/index.html for more info.

Support of 917 is not good , Se if you find some remarked 918 instead. I
just talked with on
person today and he said thay HW support of a 928 is half of a 937 so I
beleve that its the same
on 918
