Year 2000 readiness and instructions

A product is Year 2000 Ready if the product, when used in accord-
ance with its associated documentation, is capable of correctly proc-
essing, providing and/or receiving date data within and between the
20th and 21st centuries, provided all other products (for example,
software, hardware, and firmware) used with the product properly
exchange date data with it.
This IBM PC hardware product has been designed to process four-
digit date information correctly within and between the 20th and 21st
centuries.
This IBM PC product cannot prevent errors that might occur if soft-
ware you use or exchange data with is not ready for the Year 2000.
IBM software that comes with this product is Year 2000 Ready.
However, software from other companies might come with this IBM
PC product. Although IBM cannot take responsibility for the read-
iness of that software, these companies have stated that it is ready.
You should contact the software developers directly if you wish to
verify readiness, understand limitations, or look for any software
updates.
