Even better than specifying individual hosts, use pool.ntp.org:

http://www.pool.ntp.org/en/use.html

You’ll get your minimum of three servers to query and they maintain the list 
you query from.

You really should be running your own local ntp hosts, though, for continuation 
of service in the event of Internet outage.

(Also, yes: NEVER use Windows for time services. It’s absolutely terrible!)
