Some manufacturers do that as well.

I went to the manufacturer's web site to check on my digital camera
and it was covered with the blanket "this device contains no clock"
statement.... which I know is NOT true because when I download images
from the camera they all have correct time and date stamps on them
if I bothered to set the clock the last time I changed batteries.

Well, off to work on the Y10K problem... it'll be here before we know it.
