Travelworld,

Your recollection matches mine (cash in by the end of 1999 for a cert, convert the cert by the end of 2000 for a ticket and fly by the end of 2001). I don't know why they still show the equity status, but one person on the web here said that they have been able to use the old award charts (or so they inferred). And of course, those days were great. For 200,000 miles you could get four first class tickets to Europe PLUS four first class upgrades to Europe. Right now (depending on where you are going) it could take 560,000 miles for the same award (4x100k for the free tickets and 4x40k for the upgrades).
