incorrect date/time info on new Lenovo towers

This may sound like a trivial setting, but ended up causing the trial of Norton Internet Security to expire almost immediately.

I have only seen this on two PCs so far. Both have been Lenovo towers. Right out of the box, the system date is set sometime in April of 2006 and the system time is roughly 12 hours off. Be sure to fix this before stepping through Norton's startup config or the product will be useless.

Timezone defaults to Pacific, so if you're here in Texas, change it to Central.
