I just set the clock on one computer the way I wanted it, exported the reg
key [HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Control Panel\International] and put it in a startup
script to import the reg key (by user, obviously).
I did have some problems with people that had already scheduled meetings for
the future... their calendars were a little off kilter 'til those meetings
had occurred (and sometimes an hour off) due to the time change. It may not
be as seamless as you expect.
