4739.3 | RT11 will make it to 2000 | KAOFS::O_DEBOER | | Mon Jul 22 1996 10:35 | 5 |
| I had a Customer call and ask about the year 2000. Turns out he is
running a PDP1173 with RT11. How can I find out about RT11 in the year
2000. ???

| RT-11 stores the date as 5 bits, which contain the year minus 1972. So
in the year 2000, it will contain 28, in 2003, 31, and in 2004, it will
break. So they get an extra 3 years.
