“I think the street overreacted to fuel costs and Y2K. But this is not to say that estimates won't come down for the first quarter. Fuel prices are even higher now and it's very difficult in short term for carriers to control that cost.”
Ray Neidl
“I feel a lot better about Y2K [than in previous quarters]. I don't think we'll see any Y2K issues on the carrier side of the business. The enterprise side is a little more mixed. The larger corporations are in good shape. The smaller companies are a bit more mixed.”
John Roth
“Clearly the U.S. is the furthest along with the Y2K issue, and Europe is not far behind. Worst-case scenario, it will be like a big snowstorm.”
Robert Lovelace
“I'm not scared of Y2K. Just being wise and prudent.”
Judy Norton
“It's not like Y2K, where you knew that it was coming.”
Mel Reeves
“Speech recognition software is the stealth solution flying under the radar today that will revolutionize all our tomorrows.”
Grant Fairley
“We will look back on speech recognition software that became truly useful in the year 2000 as the real Y2K revolution.”
