My Amiga's Microbotics Starboard RTC didn't account for Leap Day. The truth is, the RTC software stopped working many years ago, but a friend - Chris Brenner - wrote a patch a few years ago that pushed it forward another 30+ years. I feel like I remember Chris saying it wouldn't account for Leap Day, though.
I have to imagine that was a fairly common oversight in early-days computer clock software.

@amigalove yea but I recall the changes to DST being way more painful, not just with personal computers but clocks .. we had some bedside clocks that automatically changed, but when the whole change in DST dates changed the clocks were useless.. till they caught up.. that got old quick, junked em,
