In reality, the OS itself doesn't have a problem with y2k, though most 
utilities which use the date do.  OS9 uses a single byte for the year 
with the epoch being 1900, the year 2003 being represented by the value 
103 or 0x67.  Unfortunately the date command only accepts two digit 
decimal dates.  Some commands will end up printing the year as 103, 
some as 67, and some as 19103.  On top of that the support for many 
clock chips do have y2k problems.
