11 <br /> MEMO <br /> DATE: 01-27-99 <br /> TO:' Chief Engsttom <br /> FROM: Lt. Ohl <br /> SUBJECT: Y2K Checklist/Cost Estimates Revision <br /> On 01-26-99,Kim Dulz and I, along with Kim Sykes, met with Netlink International <br /> representatives regarding the police department's Y2K compliance. We discussed all <br /> aspects of the police department's hardware, as well as software, and made several <br /> revisions to Nedink's initial cost estimate. As previously stated,Netlink neglected to add <br /> three computers and monitors which belong to the police department which are not Y2K <br /> compliant. Furthermore, due to the fact that we can no longer use WordPerfect, <br /> Microsoft Office 97(including Word)has to be installed on eight of the police <br /> department's computers. <br /> The total cost estimated by Netlink for the police department's computer systems to <br /> become complaint is $11,405.00. This,however, does not include the 3270 emulation <br /> • software, as I have still not received word from IBM as to this particular software's 2000 <br /> compliance. <br /> NOTE: LEADRS will not work with Access 95 or 97. <br /> NOTE: Access 2.0 is 2000 compliant as long as the year is entered as four digits. <br /> NOTE: Per Netlink, it is not uncommon for computers purchased from the same <br /> manufacturer to have different manufactured bios cards. This would explain why <br /> Jackie's computer has an AMI bios manufacturer, and the rest have AWARD <br /> manufactured bios'. Netlink indicated that in all other aspects,these computers are <br /> identical. However,per an internal diagnostic check,the AMI bios is not 2000 <br /> compliant. Netlink indicated they are aware of no computer manufacturers that are <br /> upgrading hardware at no cost, due to recent purchases of non-compliant hardware. <br />
