                    [Summary] =>

The Department of Science and Technology (DOST) urged the public yesterday to check if the dates in their computers will automatically roll over from Feb. 28 to 29.

Before the so-called "Y2K bug" caught the world's attention, experts predicted that computer systems that would read the year 2000 as 1900 would be able to count only 28 days of this month, notwithstanding that 1900 was a leap year like the year 2000.
