As far as keeping time goes, a $15 wrist watch does a better job that WindowsXP. The clock on my computer is rarely correct. And whats more annoying, it resets *my* correct manual resets to the wrong time.

Windows XP seems to keep the time here. If you really require down to the nano second split second perfect time keeping, by all means get a radio controlled atomic clock or wristwatch. The wristwatches now produced work everywhere except in Hawaii, Alaska, and parts of Canada. And both of the models are self adjusting for Daylight Savings Time. Now if you need to know exactly what time it is you'll never be in the dark again! :)

My XP computer was a poor timekeeper until I downloaded and ran the little program referenced in post #3 above. Now, it keeps perfect time.

Mine sets itself every 4 hours and keeps perfect time now within one second.

Add to that the fact the even when it's broken, the wristwatch is right twice a day.
