Only Microsoft could come up with this one...

(chuckle, computers)

Just the other day, the eastern Australian States of New South Wales 
and Victoria went over to Daylight Saving time.  Queensland did not.

Windows 95 regards all three as being in one time zone.

Consequently, all our email and schedule appointments have gone 
haywire, because Exchange is adjusting for a daylight saving difference 
we don't have.

(please note that Queensland has only had daylight saving for one 
summer - about three years ago)

I phoned Microsoft to ask whether they planned to fix the bug, but they 
told me:

"It's not a bug."
"Why not?"
"Because Queensland had daylight saving when we wrote the code."
