We are replacing a very fine HP3000 payroll package, Cort Payroll, for the
same reason - Y2K.

Although Cort has a very good product, they haven't sold a copy on the
HP3000 since 1996 and have therefore decided to focus on Windows. I don't
think for a minute that the Windows version will satisfy the way the HP3000
version has for the past 12 years but we don't have a choice.

Well, we will soon be moving our accounting system off of the HP3000 and
onto an NT server.  Why, you may ask?  Well, the old accounting system
was not Y2K-compliant, and was about 10 years old.  So, we did a software
search and identified two packages that ran on the HP3K and a couple
that did not.  The HP3K packages were never in the running for one very
disturbing reason:  The sales people for the first package blew us off
when we tried to get more info, and the second one never returned our
calls.

It's going to be a tough sell to keep growing the HP3K with third-party
solution providers like these.
