This all looks good, especially keeping this.  It isn't just coexistence
with Windows that makes it a good idea to put local time into the CMOS
clock.  If you want to wake up a machine in the morning it is a lot
simpler to do with local time in the clock, otherwise you either have it
waking up an hour early half the year or manually twiddle twice a year.

Complete shutdown saves even more electricity than suspend and is less
error prone on the typical desktop.  Which adds up if you have a lot of
desktops.  I only have a few dozen but every dollar that isn't wasted
helps.
