The Y2K bug was pretty much confined to server rooms, and frankly, a lot easier to analyze. 2038 is in your walls. I get the feeling that a lot of places will not know they actually have a problem until it actually goes wrong.
Given the amount of effort that Y2K required, and people thinking it actually wasn't a big deal, I have little hope that 2038 will go well.
