Oh ya sure Mikey, we were all using Internet time in the 70's.

What the hell is "Internet time"? NTP? (From what source?)


That alone lets me just say screw off Mikey.
You are so lost it does not matter what I try to inform you about

No, tell me. What is "internet time"? In all my years on the net,
I've never heard of "internet time". Tell me.

It is what a lot of ISP servers and large corperations sync their
networks clocks to so all the computers will have the same
times on them.
also Cable companies and TV stations use it to set
Cable boxes and program times to run at the correct time
for all to know when to sit down foryour favorite shows.

It is also built into Windows XP and Vista and there is software
for just about every OS to also connect to it for such.
See
http://www.time.gov/about.html

Do you run Windows XP or Vista?
look at your clock properties and settings tabs.
I think Win98 might have had it also but not sure, it's been
a while for that one for me.
