IndyBox Systems Chief Executive Charles Martin said "it is alarming to realize that many companies have no Y2K plan in place yet, even at this late date. Many organizations are trying to move their mission-critical applications over to servers running GNU/Linux, a recognized Y2K compliant operating system, as quickly as they can. We are doing our part in making many late efforts affordable and readily available." Martin added, "XM server production has increased 2800% in November as many organizations begin their tardy migration to Y2K compliant boxes. While many are well over-budget with their Y2K preparations, organizations are coming to the realization that more severe liability could result in failing to attempt to get a Y2K compliant operation in place before the new year rolls in." IndyBox Systems Chief Executive Steven Bond said "every dog has its day. Open Source software will have many, many more days to come." IndyBox Systems, Inc.
