Gee, I read my omega list mail every day but I keep missing the schedule
slippage announcements from Omega. As I expected, Omega has now moved the
shipping schedule back yet another quarter, which means that Y2K patch slips
yet another quarter. I remember taking a lot of heat last spring when I
suggested that the Y2K patch would not see the light of day until 1Q 1999
(at the earliest). Of course, in all fairness, all of the TS5 competition
seems to be slipping ship dates too, however they don't owe us a Y2K patch.
