OS X may be cognizant of UTC. But I suspect to be compatible with OS9 on the same machine, the rtc would still need to be in local time because it always was in Pre-X Mac OSs. Otherwise the time would change when switching between OS 9 and OS X. -- Debian GNU/Linux Operating System By the People, For the People Chris Tillman (a people instance)
