I don't think there was any more danger than any other technology update.
Yeah, I think that's true. It's just that all kinds of relatively ancient S/W had to get updates.
What was the plot point in the book you were reading?
It wasn't a major plot point, but one of the protagonists was working on Y2K fixes, and that was his reason for being in the setting where the plot kicked off. (And the book was written well after 2000, although, obviously, set in 1999, so it was just so random to encounter that.)
