I do think it's ridiculous (is that better than stoo-pid ) that any clock has to have the top or back or whatever screwed off to make the time change! Cheers.
I will admit I had problems with the DST change over as well. Overall, I like the idea of not having to mess around with the clock, and knowing it's not been messed aroud with. I've been at Hyatt's where the time is AM when it's supposed to be PM, off by an hour, off by 30 minutes, blinking 12:00... Really, aside from maybe 1 or 2 DST related problems, and most clocks being about 4-7 min fast, not too much to complain about. (which, there's nothing wrong with if it gets the hibitually late to work on time ).
