Ours aren't too bad right now... back at Y2K time, I took the opportunity to make sure that every machine in the branch office I was responsible for supporting failed the corporate-mandated Y2K testing... so now everyone's got at least a P3-450, and I got the satisfaction of taking a sledgehammer to a pile of 5 year old Compaqs...
