IBM's report for dismissal earning for the next TWO Quarters has driven the NY Stock market down severely as well as the price of IBM stock.

IBM announced claim is Y2K Freeze and prior equipment purchases to support Y2K will be the cause in martkets other than PC.

Question is will or how might this affect the MIS staffs?
and job market for "00"
