Well, a lot of new users might not know about the options, and of course guest users (most of whom are PST/EST) can't change the options.

The clock display is set according to the member's preference. What difference does it make what time we have the default set to? tooki

In my experience, most EST/PST people can look at time stamps from either zone and convert easily, since we all have to do it often. Thinking in terms of GMT or other time zones is…

And I think GMT is a good base time, what with it being the baseline time for almost the whole world. Time zones are referred to by their "GMT+/- x hrs" offset. I think it's good h…

I think GMT makes more sense to the rest of the world, given we all know our GMT offset, but not necessarily EST.

I hereby decree people who know their GMT offset are officially nerds.

I should restate, everyone outside the US

Leave it as GMT

It will remain GMT. Thanks everyone.

I want to splice either my USB or Firewire cable into my car's CD changer cable (behind the head unit). Does anyone have a link to the Apple iPod cable wiring digram or color codes…

The info you're asking for won't help you. you need the pin-out of the connector itself. Neither the F/W nor the USB cable will have wires going to the pins you need for the line-l…

Someone (I can't remember which company) makes a small device called the PocketDock. It's a tiny little connector which goes from the dock connector to line out and either FW or U…

This page may help you. I don't understand it myself, but it looks like the sort of thing that you asked for.

The pocketDock looks a lot like the new Apple adapter, bet the PhotoPod will treat it similarly too - the pinout christ posted looks very helpful too. Glad I checked back here. One…

All, Thanks for the pointers. I printed and filed the iPod connector for my electrical records. Yes, it looks like the PD line-out will do exactly what I want. I had seen the PD, …
