I'm not following on this.  I dont think slimserver should be changing pc system
settings for timezone.  Is it just a player setting that you want, which allows
an offset from the server time?

i don't remember why i put this in honestly, but yes, i think it was something
like what you said about allowing the player to display a different time based
on a specified offset...

easy enough to implement a setting in web and player UI for time offset. 
complicated when it would come to alarm clocks which would activate bassed on
server time.  This brings a lot of confusion when users go to set them.  I'll
volunteer to make the UI, but I think this needs some high end design desisions
as to how it will work for ergonomics

ahh, i don't remember what the deal was with this anyway.  closing it...
