ha ha ha ha ha

The thing I hate about it is that every clock in the house will need changed to the right time (except the PC clock). That's 8 clocks

Of course even the PC one can be a problem if you've got a dual boot system coz both installations of windows/linux will want to change the clock.

So do you live in a huge house or are you just some kind of obsessive compulsive clockmaniac?

Sara and I want one that can play MP3 files too... Sony do a HD MP3 player that can link to your PC to download the tracks onto it (it can also rip in MP3 and Sony's own ATRAC lossless format). And Sony do a HD video recorder that can't link to your PC. We want them to combine the 2 so that we can get rid of our 300 disc CD player and our DVD player and have everything nice and electronic.

I went into the Sony Centre the other day and when I asked about it the guy looked at me like I was mad to want a HD video unit that can play MP3s or vice-versa... I pointed out that the DVD-RW/HDD units that Sony make can play MP3 CDs so it's not that different and he just went all sulky and told me that as far as he knew there weren't any plans to do it... IMHO it would mean a big promotion for the first person to suggest it at Sony HQ!

Cheers,
Tez.

I think it is stupid how they do it!

Why not change it so that the clocks change at 12:00pm so that all the folks who are at work get an hour off of work! LMAO!

It would work a treat!

Erm, it would be an extra hour in work! They go back, so it would be 11am again and you would have an extra hour to work before lunch!

I always get annoyed they do it on a Saturday though, I reckon a Sunday would be nicer, so you could get an extra hour in bed before Monday morning!

It'd be REALLY good if we turned the clocks back a whole week! Then I would have got an extra week off school! lol

I think it's stupid that they still mess with the clocks I mean surely nowadays the farmers can use electric lights!!! I recon we should just stay at BST all the time atleast then kids wouldn't be walking home from school at 4pm in the pitch black

This is now GMT, the actual time. The other one was BST, which is the "pretend" time. So if they didn't mess with it we'd be on GMT all the time, and going home in the dark for more of the year!
