Microsoft logic

Heh... had some fun in the office today, someone (not pointing fingers) changed the date on the server computer to 2034 (you know who you are), and one of our apps syncs the date on your workstation to the server date. So you can imagine the fun when one of my coworkers can't access the network drives etc. because it tells her "Date and time are different than the server". She restarts the computer, then it tells her she can't log in to the domain AND she doesn't have a local username so she can't even log onto her local computer. She was pretty happy.

Apparently in MS world if you're workstation is 30 years off the server computer date it doesn't like you anymore. Isn't that special.
