Informatics expert Genove Gneco says that the Universidad Autónoma de Santo Domingo, the Presidency of the Republic, the Ministry and Public Works and the Metropolitan Transport Authority could confront Y2K problems with 80% of their computers if measures are not taken in time. New HP computer systems were installed last year, but unfortunately they were not Y2K ready systems. The HPvetra models are sensitive to the Y2K problems, he told the press. Of about 100 computers at the state university (UASD), only three will continue operating in year 2000 if corrective measures are not implemented. Gneco can be contacted at Tel. 809 533-2629.
