Not true.  Just it up for Greenwich Mean Time (UK) and no daylight
savings time.  Windows will always show Zulu time, but at least it's
somewhat sane and stops playing with your clock.  Set up linux to use
UTC.  Linux is smart enough to display times in your local time zone.

Since windows can't do time sanely, I figure this is the least losing mode.
