The OS may be y2k ready. But the OS and the apps are seperate items. Also many apps reference future dates. I can't see why they would in Poser. But it's very common in financial and insurance software. I worked at an insurance database software vendor in early 99 and we already had y2k hit us then when quoting apps started crashing left and right. On Unix systems which are built date wise just like Macs. Based on the number of seconds from 1970. Only problem was that the apps weren't written the same way as the OS. Y2K bugs won't and haven't been all hitting us at the stroke of midnight. They'll come in over time as various items refer or do lookups to post 2000 dates. Many of the bugs have already come and gone.

Truth has no value without backing by unfounded belief.
