Dear AMMRL members,

Has anyone got any idea about how to deal with year 2000 on an Aspect
3000? There are hundreds in use on ACs MSLs and AMs, and I would be
surprised if ours was the only one that used the date in accounting
software. The best idea I have so far is to put the clock back by 28
years. Bruker have already said that the problem is of no concern to them
because it does not interfere with data acquisition.
