Perhaps a silly question, but, does the "tick" that drives the OS
software clock originate from the RTC or from the CPU master clock at 2

Not clear what thei question has to do with frequency stablizing a xtal,
but the system clock is linked to the cpu clock.
I was simply wondering which crystal is the perpetrator. I always
thought the CPU clock was highly accurate.

I get about 300 emails per day from alternate energy mailing lists and
such. I don't always see new messages very quickly. If you need a
