Cheeky -

In my opinion I found that RTC test misleading!

Absolutely!

No question there are vendors running around selling RTC/BIOS/clock hardware & software junk that is entirely pointless.

And they're playing on the fears & ignorance of gullible victims who want to believe that all they have to do for Y2K is apply a $125 magic fix.

Would that life were so simple.

While I'm certainly ripping at such unscrupulous vendors, yet on the other hand... There wouldn't be so many snake-oil salesmen if there weren't so many willing snake-oil customers.
