Original message:

|I'm quite certain that I found the DEC 3000/M600 in the Compaq
|Y2k-database listed as 'ready' earlier, but now I can't find it!
|We still have one of these in production, and although we plan an
|upgrade this year, we still have some use for it. Its part number
|is 'PE42A-B9'. Does anyone know if there are Y2K issues with this
|box? (it's running 4.0E + latest firmware rev)

I received one answer from Peter Reynolds [PReynolds_at_synstar.com], who said
the only Alpha-system he knew of that had a Y2K-problem was the 4000 series
(which fails to recognize the year 2000 as a leap year). As long as I keep
my firmware and OS version up to date (Unix 4.0D etc) I should not have a
problem.

Thanks for your help.
