Australian Daylight Savings Changes for Microsoft Products for the Year 2006 As we all know the Commonwealth Games are happening March 2006 down in Melbourne. To accomodate this, several Australian states including New South Wales, Victoria, Australian Capital Territory, South Australia and Tasmania, have changed the Daylight Savings transition end dates to the first Sunday of Apr 2006. What this also means is that all software that automagically adjusts wont be able to cope. I know, we should have had inside knowledge back whay back when Windows XP was being cooked up to KNOW that this would be the case. We ARE the Official Technology Partner to the Commonwealth Games , so we should have a fix, right? Well, we do!
