It is estimated that 7 out of 10 people do not know about the Y2K problem. Of the 3 people that do, only 1 person thinks it will affect them. Many experts say it will not affect just corporations, but more than 85% of the total population will be severely burdened. It is the Year 2000, and it holds some nasty surprises for those who are not prepared.
The Year 2000 Problem or Millennium Bug will wreak havoc on more than just computers. It will affect everything with a microprocessor.

June 8, 1998
The House Appropriations Committee pumped an extra $1.6 billion in "emergency" funding into the Defense Department's efforts to fix the Year 2000 problem in its thousands of computer systems and to enhance computer security.
The Year 2000 funding consists of an "emergency appropriation that does not come out of DOD's regular budget," a spokeswoman said. An industry source said he thought most of the emergency funding would go to Year 2000 work rather than computer security because Deputy Secretary of Defense John Hamre "has made a strong case that [the Year 2000] is a national and computer security issue of paramount importance."
Hamre last week told the Senate Authorization Committee that the Pentagon has expended more than $1.9 billion "out of hide" to fix Year 2000 problems in its information systems. This has forced DOD to defer similar expenditures on the development of new systems, Hamre said.
