Received this directly from an Emergency Manager:

Steve, The only y2k related issues that we had in the City of Battle Creek were one computer that linked our Computer Aided Dispatch system to the city's AS-400. It had a little problem from going from the 2 digit police starters to the 4 digit police starter complaint numbers. All that was needed, was a reboot and it is working fine.

The second was an old 75 Mhz laptop that we are using in our Mobile Command Center as an MDT, this rolled to 1980. A manual date reset and boot and it is fine.

That's IT!

Jim
