Meetings & Conventions: Short Cuts April 1999

April 1999
Short Cuts:FAST FORWARD
Fewer than nine months remain until the world lets go (for
better or worse) of its obsession with the year 2000. In the
meantime, companies are scrambling to complete pricey Y2K computer
upgrades to make sure the rollover is uneventful. But what about
all the computers set up in spare bedrooms and home offices?
Rockland, Md.-based Charles River Media, publisher of books and
software tools, is offering a solution: The Year 2000 Personal
Computer Fix-It Guide by JD Consulting.
The guide uses easy-to-understand language to describe the Y2K
bug, then leads readers through solutions, covering most popular
software programs and operating systems. An accompanying CD-ROM has
several demonstration versions of commercial applications that fix
certain problems.
The package costs $44.95. Call Charles River at (800) 382-8505
or visit the firm’s Web site at (www.charlesriver.com)
