FAQ on Daylight Savings Time

A few weeks ago, I wrote a blog about the date changes for the new Daylight Savings time. As we are about to make the change on Sunday morning, I thought I would write a quick reminder about it and send you to a CNET web page that has a quick down-and-dirty FAQ on what is affected and what you might have to do about it.

As a side note, I read an angry e-mail from a company executive whose firm will have to pay a few thousand dollars to make the change because his company still uses Windows 2000 and an older version of Exchange. Microsoft stopped supporting both of them a while back and the only way you can get a fix is to pay a fair amount of money to Microsoft for the "extra" support. You gotta love 'em.

And for Windows XP users, that kind of nonsense is going to happen to us in the near future because with the release of Vista, we are becoming obsolete.
