Well, I have only one computer , . . .
. . . so I don't have to do anything except turn my computer on when I get up on Sunday morning, check that the clock is actually wrong, turn off the automatic DST, and manually change the clock - well all the clocks hooked up to automatically change 3 weeks ahead of time. No big deal.

Those with multiple servers & a host of other communications hardware will have to give up their Sunday off to manually switch off their DST settings & reset multiple devices. That would-will-suck.

IMHO, DST should either be eliminated or reversed. We need the extra evening daylight in the winter. Just one example would be rush hour traffic is safer during daylight than at night.
