Yes, please. :-) I had an Intel motherboard which had a clock drift. A couple of seconds a day. When I had to reboot after upgrading/etc, it was not a serious problem, but say, the system locked up and rebooted unexpectedly, it always had a huge clock drift if the system had been up for a couple of weeks/months. I recently got rid of that system, but still I think it's a good thing to have. --=20 Ed Schouten WWW: http://80386.nl/ --g3RkK9jYN81zD2N+ Content-Type: application/pgp-signature Content-Disposition: inline -----BEGIN PGP SIGNATURE----- Version: GnuPG v2.0.14 (FreeBSD) iEYEARECAAYFAkusznIACgkQ52SDGA2eCwXUfwCeIhFxk+1jAoydvOfRaAMNISVY ceYAn11ggt1FFu4AzriKAYSQgxGdhEOT =6EbC -----END PGP SIGNATURE----- --g3RkK9jYN81zD2N+--
