Cabletron Unable to Estimate Y2K Costs

greenspun.com : LUSENET : TimeBomb 2000 (Y2000) : One Thread

From Cabletron's recent 10-K filed 7-23-99:

"Currently, Cabletron has no reasonable estimate of the amount of out-of-pocket costs which may be incurred to address Year 2000 issues for our products and internal infrastructure. At this time, the company cannot reasonably estimate the potential impact on its financial position and operations if key suppliers, customers and other constituents do not become Year 2000-compliant on a timely basis."

Probably the most honest Y2K assessment ever presented. I'll bet this is the way 95% would read if they were honest about it.
