Funny anecdote (actually not really funny at the time): Our windows test image for previously mentioned customer was set to use UTC time, but had the checkbox set for "adjust for daylight savings" Well, there is no daylight savings in UTC, but Windows still seemed to think during sysprep that it was a good idea during certain dates of year to set the BIOS clock ahead one hour. Since we booted twice during sysprep, all clocks went out the door off by 2 hours. This did not go over well with said customer, and we had to recall all the systems so they could be set properly (yes, I'm not making this up, we had to boot these systems to our network, which automatically set the time, and then shut them down).


If I was Prez my first Executive Order would be to get rid of daylight savings time. Just doing that would probably add 1% to the GDP!
