Microsoft actually released an OS that does this. What incompetence. Did they even test it?

Microsoft has historically made such blunders. There are fewer types of doohickeys to support now, and more uniform standards, so it should get easier, not harder.

My favorite Microsoft blunder was with the original Windows 95. It was their first environment that would adjust to Daylight Savings Time automatically. If you left your computer on overnight, the system would check to see if 2:00 AM hit, and then set the clock back an hour. BUT IT DIDN'T SET A FLAG! So, an hour later, when the clock hit 2 AM again, the clock got set back another hour, etc.

OMG. I’m just a single guy writing stuff and when I’ve done DST code it didn’t do that. In fact my code doesn’t even need to be running at the cutover times to work. D’oh!
