OK, I stand corrected, at least on my terminology, and possibly on the
cost of that other "bit of hardware" required to keep the plex in synch
with real-world time.
I believe that the z800 where I work does not synch to some external time
source; issuing:
ro *all,d t
shows a local time from all systems that's about 15-20 seconds slow
compared to my Casio Waverunner (wristwatch that synchs to NIST). If that
other "bit of hardware" were only a few hundred dollars, I'm pretty sure
we'd be taking advantage of that feature.
