Year 2000 Problem
The Mathematica application package contains no known problems with
regard to what has come to be known as the "Year 2000 problem." All internal
representations of dates within the computational kernel are in the form of
high-level expression structures that are capable of representing arbitrary
dates.
Certain aspects of the software make use of the host operating
system's real-time clock, for example, in order to learn the current date and
time. Mathematica is therefore limited by the operating system it is
running on, but these limitations are inherent to the operating system, not
Mathematica, and correct functioning extends well beyond the year
2000 in all systems for which Mathematica is available. This
statement represents the best knowledge available to Wolfram Research, the
developer of the software. However, this statement does not represent any
warranty or acceptance of liability: The only such representations are
contained in the software license agreement for Mathematica.
