Actually you can force Windows to accept a hardware clock in UTC: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE/SYSTEMCurrentControlSetControl/TimeZoneInformation/RealTimeIsUniversal
I'm using this on my dual-boot machine at home because I that stupid Daylight Savings Time change twice a year really annoyed me. So far the only downside I found is that you have to remember that the time you enter in the BIOS has to be UTC.
