I'd be curious to see how you are estimating the clock speed. Just a simple 
machine language loop? 

It would be interesting to see how emulators compare and to test them against 
both the M100's internal sense of time and objective "wall time".

For example, I expect MAME will have the best match to the internal clock and 
worst match to actual time. 

Virtual T seems to have a reasonable clock for the M100, but it is slightly off 
for the T200. I'm not sure how Virtual T's clock works. It seems to magically 
sync with the host computer's time, but does that only happen at start-up or is 
it replacing the M100's time-of-day clock completely?
