That figures<g> since this is version 3.0.

On RTSI, under the OSK directory there is a command called SETIMEX that
allowed me to properly input todays date.  However, the date command in the
same OSK directory is still confused.

Now, when the AT306 boots, it sets up a bunch of hardware windows accessible
by ALT-Fn(1-8).  In each of these windows is a line stating what version of
OS9 is running, the TRUE date and time, and a logon prompt.  It remembers
this date across reboots.  SO, I'm going to need a new DATE command.

All of this is happening because I'm strapping those two MOUSE pins
together.  I sure someone will tell me why I have to do that once enough
people have had a chance to read up on my progress.
