Not so fast - the issue is in the use of the "standard PC" components.
Apple's apparently using UTC time in the hardware clock, and MS
apparently is not.
Other OSes on Intel boxes work use UTC time too, so solutions that work
for them may apply here too.
Perhaps a better approach in general would be to run Windows inside a
VM (Parallels, VMware, VirtualBox) in Leopard.
