Well it is that time of year again when we all get to fool around with clocks
again. In addition to the kitchen clock, the alarm clock, the VCR, the cable
converter, the ... I also have to change the clock on something that should
know better, namely my Mac. I had to do it last fall as well but with all the
talk about ROM upgrades and new system files maybe something can be done about
it. There is no reason why my Mac can't automatically fool around with its
clock to handle daylight savings time. Every UNIX system I know of can handle
DST automatically and I see no reason why any other computer OS can't. In the
system file have a resource that indicates whether DST applys. This way DST
can be customized for Europe and so on. When DST rolls around (or rolls out)
the Mac can then automatically change its clock. The algorithm is simple and
not huge. How about it Apple?
