and fall back on Sunday, November 4, 2007. Companies may be caught off guard by this change. This is the first year that the new US law is in effect. Airlines hate it, but candy companies love it. Kids will have an added hour of daylight for Halloween (October 31) in the US.

Did you know anything about this? I just learned of it yesterday, and the four-week change to Daylight Savings time could prove to be the new Y2K. Let's hope we get this information out soon!

See the following overview link for some initial information on the dates and how they might affect Windows products:

On a personal note, we're flying to Hawaii on 3/11/2007. Lots of airline equipment and computers will not be updated. Wish us luck! We'd better be at the airport early -- and I'll bet lots of people will be surprised by this change.

Have a great week!
