If you are wondering whether your computer will still work properly come
the year 2000, here is a little piece of freeware that will test it for
you.

Unzip it; read the text file, then run the programs.   Be sure to quit
all date-sensitive apps before you do so, though.  (The program changes
the dates back and forth.)

The program will reboot your machine a couple of times.  In case you are
left with a 2000 date, change it manually at the very end.
