The time in.......

How about 3 small running clocks in a corner somewhere?

One showing US EST, one showing the time in Guanzhou (sp), and one showing Zulu.

I don't think a clock for every time zone is needed, just 3 for the major areas showing the US geeks' time, dealers' time in China, and also one for the geeks in EU.

This way we ALL have a quick reference, on all pages, telling us that right now, who we are trying to get an answer from, is in bed, or having dinner with their family, or it's Sunday afternoon and they're probably in the yard in a hammock, with a baby on their lap and a cold one on the ground next to them?

Just a tiny reminder somewhere on the page, (with running seconds, of course!), so we *think* before we send that last angry pm.

I like the idea of that - nice thinking SB

What do ya say, geeks?

ah nice! but my working hours are different from standard China time haha

Oh, I see, Angus. Sometimes dealers do this as a night job when they get home, or on weekends, but do other jobs during the day?!

I'm just trying to come up with a way to let the new guys know that you guys might not be at a computer all the time.

It's a good idea to be sure, although like Angus said it depends on the dealer's hours. I'm still behind it because it would look cool, though ;)

Cool idea!
Maybe it could be a feature on the dealer's section (visit the section and see if it is their normal working hours).
I bet the dealers would love it.

that would be a cool idea, or just buy an apple computer.
