RE: [T3] Y2KVWT3


It's not the hardware that is the main culprit, it's the software.  A PC,
alone, won't have a problem but the software it's using may.  Remember
volks, this is a software (programming) problem, not a hardware problem.

I know JJ was kidding but even on it's best day the control box wouldn't be
able to compute a date, let alone an ASCII character.  There is no need for
an engine management system to worry about dates, only the passage of time
in *its* world (chronography), not ours.
