If I boot Linux on my Win8 laptop in the summer, it knows the time perfectly well. If I now boot Win8, the clock is an hour ahead. It does use a network time source but it does not query the source on boot, or soon afterwards. Eventually it will do so, but on a fixed schedule, so not for days, and there seems to be no way to fix it. It's not just the first time after DST arrives, it's every time. I give it a kick manually, which of course involves entering an admin password... -- Joe
