Reminds me of the time that people normally have to set the time always
after starting up. At that period (very first orriginal IBM-PC) there
was a manufacturer shipping a untested version of a
real-time-clock-chip, that had eight days per week.

Was eager to get one of those: nice to have a day for just playing with
the PC ;-)
