So I wonder if it looks at where the browser is and allows for the timezone offset so as to give you and I the correct number of days during the hours that the question has different answers in Europe and America? :) :)
I think the hour is propagated as UTC, and your machine simply displays it in your localtime.
I think you missed my smiley! It wasn't the wget/ls output I was thinking of, it was the bits in the image! At the start of release day, the countdown image should be showing 0 days to Europeans, while it should still be showing 1 day to North Americans. The number of days remaining changes at 0500 UTC for New Yorkers, for example, if the file is to be released at 0000 UTC. So the server should in theory serve a different image to browsers depending on where the browser is located.
