How will your office address daylight savings time at several weeks earlier than usual? Does the time change affect your work hours, or do you work by the Sun?
Daylight savings changes and your computer are entwined in decisions you need to make in the next few days. Getting ready isn't as much of a challenge as you might think.
If you bought a new computer with Windows VISTA installed, the March date for daylight savings time to take over is covered.
Systems using Windows XP and 2003 systems can go to Microsoft to get a patch which will set your machine up to work with the new dates. If you have automatic notices for downloads, this patch has already come to you. Automatic downloads and install have it working for you already.
I do not care for automatic downloads and install, but when I was snooping around about information on Vista, somehow, my computer got switched over to automatic anyway. I've been kind of distracted and haven't gone in to change that. I just want to look at the downloads. Some of the patches for better gaming, etc. aren't anything I need on my system because they don't apply, for example.People using older systems, such as Windows 98, will have to make the changes themselves.
MAC users, you can learn details about many operating systems at the Apple site and these Documents. The Daylight savings time changes are on systems released in Feb of 2006.
I do not care for daylight savings time. I know clocks are a concept of mankind and government, but REGULAR time is my time. When I have to leap ahead that hour and lose the sleep, it takes longer every year for me to balance. DH says leave it just the way it is, one way or another. I would prefer to stay with REGULAR time. I just feel better when the FALL BACK day comes and I can get to MY time.
