I'm trying to get to the bottom of whether or not any computing equipment made around the advent of UNIX systems (or any time-slicing system) used the mains cycles of 60Hz as phase lock for the internal system clock. My guess is that perhaps they did not as the computing logic is DC based, but, I have memories of using an 68000 based UNIX system that I thought had its internal clock based off of the 60Hz mains... Not sure the vendor anymore.
