The information on the Macintosh, including the dialog box images, came from
Bob Baumel, who used to subscribe to this list, but no longer does.
 
I don't have a Macintosh. If someone does and can send me usable screen
captures containing the relevant dialog boxes, plus a set of instructions, I
can update the page.

The information regarding Date and Time formats for Macintosh computers is
wrong on the SI Navigator site referred to below. That site refers to an
older operating systems and not to the more recent versions (starting with
OS-X, I believe). 

The erroneous information began by referring to "Control Panels" which are
no longer used on Macintosh computers. The date and time formats in question
are now dealt with under System Preferences. (Go to System Preferences and
then to International Preferences.)

Bill Potts, the SI Navigator webmaster, will get this message when the rest
of you do, so he may begin making changes to correct this problems before
others go there to look it up.

These are both accessible on the SI Navigator Web site. Just go to
http://metric1.org, then click on the Date and Time Notation menu item. The
page that appears has links (Windows and Macintosh) to each of the above,
which open in new windows.
