IBM WARNS EUROPEAN ON CONVERSION TO SINGLE CURRENCY
IBM is urging European businesses to delay implementation of a common
European currency beyond its planned introduction in 1999, warning that
there will be computer chaos caused by a severe shortage of skills needed
to cope with such a transition.  Many businesses, however, remain
skeptical, and think that computing groups are simply seeking business.
