Daylight Savings Time (DST) in the U.S.

Alan, on behalf of all the computer morons out there, thanks for the usual good--and timely--info.

Here's a patch for you to fix DST:
Wake up at 2:01 AM on Sunday, March 11
Go to your computer
Click on Control Panel
Click on Date and Time
Change time to one hour ahead (due to your slow movement, it may be 3:02)
Press Ok
Close Control Panel
Go back to bed. The world will still be there when you wake up, just some of your friends may be an hour late.
Pay me millions for the fix.

That's no fun!
I, personally, prefer the MS approach:

"Press x to download IF you REALLY have an honest to god, non-pirated version of MS XP. If not, you will die.
Next, save to disc.
Want fries with that?
Next, press continue
Next, attach new file and save
Want coffee with that?
Next, do this, press that, choose the other and configure dollars per doughnut.
Press finish

CaptTom may be on to something, but don't tell Mr. Gates I said so.

Like this pc that i am on right now the clock is saying it is 12:34 am and the actual clock here in Barbados is saying 01:34.
Now in my bedroom my pc clock says 11:34pm (and no it is not slow) so i do not know what is going on. DST related?

Hey I am just worried about the curtains fading with that extra hour of sunlight................................................

Hi,

You sound more like a cow cocky from Queensland with that statement than where your Avtar says you hail from.

Well, here it is, Sunday morning. The sun came up, the paper was delivered, electricity is still on, money is still in the bank, Outlook calendar is still chock full of appointments, my teenagers are still at each other's throats, yeah, life goes on, even if the clocks did change a few weeks early.
Thanks to all who helped in taking care of this problem so I could lead a normal life (I remember the Y2K days).
Anyone experience any issues?

I actually lost power for about an hour early Sunday morning around 4am. I was fearing the worst. Turns out it resulted from a disagreement between a Peterbilt and a telephone pole. The Peterbilt won.

I'm having an issue... my PDA won't accept the new time. And I seriously can't figure out why. It's synched (or at least should be) to my computer, which is showing the correct time yet it keeps reverting to the wrong time. Even if I manually set it, it keeps going back. I'm going to try again this evening when I get home, see what happens then.

What kind of PDA is it? Depending on the model it might have an autoupdate setting attached to the time that could be giving you your problems...

Dell Axim x51v.

Even if it does have an auto-update, the only source it can update from would be my computer.... which is right.

Right?

I manually adjusted my clock forward in Windows yesterday. Today, it reverted back! Go figure.

Thanks Arnie! Problem fixed. I put a piece of black electrical tape over the bottom right corner of my screen.

No dice Arnie...

My PDA is set to update from the PC to the PDA. The PC time is correct. Yet when it updates the PDA the time still goes back one hour. I've just corrected it manually and set the PDA to not update the date/time.
