Thunder Clock



AG>I use a enhanced 2e with a Thunderclock in slot#5.  The clock works fine
AG>as long as I use a Prodos Version 1.9..  As soon as I switch to a version
AG>2.0.., the clock shows the year 1987 and can not be reset to 1995!!  Back
AG>to Prodos 1.9. and everything is ok.
AG>Questions: 1) What causes this problem with the years?
AG>{>>> it is a bug in Prodos

It sounds like the year-table in your copy of ProDOS 2.x has not been patched 
yet.  The year is computed based on the month/day/day-of-week since the 
Thunderclock does not keep track of the year itself.
