US Treasury becomes world's largest customer for Y2K fix with record-breaking purchase of Millennium Bug Toolkit Computer Experts (UK) Ltd, the world-leader in the field of PC Millennium compliance, has today announced a record-breaking deal with the US Treasury which will provide a 150,000-seat license for it's award-winning Millennium Bug Toolkit - making this the largest deal of it's kind world-wide, to date. "To say that we are pleased is an understatement," says Ian Partington, Managing Director, Computer Experts (UK) Ltd. "What could be a better endorsement of our product than a record breaking order from an organisation as large as the US Government? It seems that the reality of the Millennium Bug has finally begun to sink in around the world, and we are very excited to offer a foolproof solution amidst all of the hype out there. We will remain on the front lines to help the US Government - and anyone else - solve the problems associated with the Millennium Bug." Almost immediately after receiving and evaluating the first sample of the product, a consultant acting on behalf of the US government requested that an additional 100 copies be sent as part of a larger trial. After four months of stringent testing and comparison with other products, they then contacted Computer Experts and placed an order for 150,000 units. Computer Experts has now signed a blanket agreement which will provide licenses to use the Millennium Bug Toolkit for every PC in the US Secret Service, Internal Revenue Service (IRS), and parts of US Customs. The product was dispatched within 7 days of the order being placed. As part of the deal, Computer Experts will be providing the US Treasury with a team of consultants for the commencement of the implementation period. About The Millennium Bug Toolkit The Millennium Bug Toolkit tests, fixes and scans PC hardware for the year 2000 "bug". It is the first product to offer BSI PD 2001-1 Certification, the only guarantee of protection against the Millennium Bug for PCs at hardware level, and the first to include a power down test to ensure that the PC can 'remember' the date when confronted with a power off, power on sequence. A network version for use with Windows 95, NT, and Novell is available. All versions come with a "No Fix, No Fee" guarantee.

Through it's continued development, led largely by evolving customer requirements, The Millennium Bug Toolkit has now received endorsements from leading consumer magazines, independent millennium compliance review bodies and major corporate, financial and military institutions. Customers include Coca-Cola, Motorola, Sony, Sainsbury's and the US Treasury.
