    Harvey:

I have already done what you suggested;  in other words, I went in and 
changed the time mannually in the control panel.

Something is still weird, though, because I had automatic updates running, 
and did not turn the computer off last night.

Did the exact same thing on the laptop, and it switched over fine.

At least now, I have fixed it the old manual way;  will be interesting to 
see what happens the first week of April when the original switch to DST 
would have occurred.
