Y2K Bug
- Share via
I may have experienced the first documented instance of the Y2K bug. A few months ago I bought a small, whimsical metal bug labeled “Y2K” to sit on my computer printer. One day the printer began misbehaving. I fished inside and found a loose metal part--the Y2K bug had fallen in! The bug now sits atop my scanner, and the printer is working correctly again.
