Despite the data from the books, I find that realtime clocks
vary widely from device to device. My ATime gained about 6 minutes
a month. A client's lost about 3 minutes a month. Another gained
about 10 SECONDS a month. My TimeSaver gains about 1 minute a month.
I don't find this a problem. Others might, I guess. These clock
can vary widely depending on the difference in temperature where
they were calibrated and your house temperature, variations in
components and care in design. Some units have adjustments, others
don't. My ATime had no calibration adjustments. A friend's ATime
did.

cause a lot of problems with auto-boot commercial programs."
