The Microcomputer labs generally fall into two categories. Macintosh labs, Year 2000 and beyond The first category is Macintosh. These labs should be at the hardware and operating system date compliant until at least the year 2040. We expect that none of these systems will be in operation in 2040 except possibly for historical purposes. This represents the majority of ACS managed microcomputers at approximately 510 stations.
Details are online here on microhelp.ucsd.edu.
PC compatible labs, Year 2000 and beyond The majority of the ACS managed PC labs will be year 2000 compliant by that time. Many are compliant today. HP and Dell are being consulted. The Administrative Computing and Telecommunications web site has a Year 2000 page that discusses other activity concerning year 2000 on the campus. The following vendors may have more information on year 2000 compliance for their products.
