     They're crazy, but it's their business if they want to go out of 
     business. Why would they expect anyone to continue business with 
     them if all their invoices come backdated 18 years (or whatever the 
     rollback date thing is). I wouldn't pay an invoice if it didn't 
     have the right date. To me, to skimp on something as important as 
     this is sheer suicide.

I have a customer who has just told me that they cannot afford the $500K it
will take to upgrade all of their software/hardware (AS/400, PC's, Retail
store Cash registers, store controllers, etc.).

They want to know if they can just set the date back on their /400.  The
controller knows of people who are going to do this.  They want me to test
this on another 400.

I can do this, just wondering if anyone has any serious reason why you can't
do this?

I know things like reports will show wrong dates, etc.  But they don't seem
to bother the customer.  I think they are crazy.  What do you think?
