I would not go around telling people what to do, but like Mike, I am a

like it if my computers are off by more than 0.1 second.

I run the nist ntp client and have it sync twice a day. Within a minute
or so is fine with me.



That would be find for most of us but I have a feeling Iggy uses his

At least that is what I suspect.

My bidding program is JBidWatcher and I believe that it keeps its own,
separate time. It syncronizes it with eBay's official time.



You are likely right, would make more sense to sync with ebay for that
application.
