Niftee-Tron Enterprises Readme-o-Matic: the Y2K-o-Matic
About the Y2K-o-Matic
As the end of the world, er, year approaches, more and more computer systems are going under the scrutiny of the Y2K debuggers. Large corporations and manufacturing facilities are spending hundreds of millions of dollars this year to be sure their computer systems are ready for the rollover from 1999 to 2000. Programmers and developers are charging huge amounts to do this work, and are, in fact, capitalizing on the shortsightedness of their predecessors.
But what's an average Joe to do? How can you tell, without hiring an expensive consultant, if your computer is ready for Y2K? We, at Niftee-Tron Enterprises, have devised a simple, yet sophisticated program to do just that. The Y2K-o-Matic probes your computer system, software and hardware, and asks you a few simple questions, then determines your level of readiness - whether your computer will be a happy one, experience a few glitches, or go down in flames.
The Y2K-o-Matic, like all Niftee-Tron creations, is Floppyware. We, the authors of the Y2K-o-Matic encourage you to put it on a floppy disk, make as many copies as you like, and give them to friends. You may use and distribute Floppyware products freely. If this program makes you smile, laugh, or just giggle a little, please send the author some email at option8@niftee-tron.com.
