GPS systems will be struck by Y2K-like bug on April 6: Security expert says he won’t fly on day zero

  • #61
Lol this thread reminds me of one of my coworkers back in 1999. He bought up every copy of magazines he could find that had the date January 2000, as well as newspapers from January 1, 2000.

He was convinced they would be worth a fortune in years to come, as people would pay big bucks for the first magazines and newspapers of the new century.

I didn’t work with him very long so I don’t know if he ever made his fortune.
