my phone at work was an hour behind in the morning

Cars generally have pretty basic clocks that don't adjust for DST at all.

Cell phones should pull their time from the wireless provider. If you're talking about a digital land-line system, most of them run on off-the-shelf OSes which have all had time zone updates available for some time (okay, so not technically "Windows" updates - same concept though).

My comp didn't update either... I'm glad I wasn't the only knob who didn't know wtf was going on.

Baha!

The machines obviously weren't.

If your machine changed this past weekend, I think someone needs to spend some money and update their there electronics to get something better!

it was just pretty bizarre - the car was exactly an hour behind compared to our wrist watches

also we just have a regular business line, not a digital one, so again, that was weird too! the time was later adjusted

Canada backwards?

No no..It's the damn Americans. Trying to save Energy by changing the DST!

Apparently there was a report done that said it would cost approx. $500 Million - $1Billion to fix all of the issues involved with changing the DST.

WTF haha

My intention was not to hurt your feelings, but hurt your box.
