Jason, Our soldering equipment manufacturer is one who is wanting to charge $200 to receive a disk with a fix-it file on it that is then installed onto the computer and will automatically run the first time the equipment is activated after Dec 31, 1999 11:59PM. You don't want to know my response! It was language that is not appropriate for the Internet!!! I am going to be expecting (and I better see and receive) to see a supply of these so call $200 disks available for pickup at NEPCON later this month!! They are the only one of our equipment manufacturers that has this nerve. Good luck. Richard Hamilton Clemar Mfg. / Rain Bird [log in to unmask] > -----Original Message----- > From: <Jason M.
