I recently got a new laptop to replace the piece of crap gateway that I’d been using for a couple of years. The new one is great, a T43 from Lenovo – the only problem is that it can’t keep time worth a hoot. I’m not talking about losing a few seconds here and there. It loses 10–15 minutes at a time – very quickly. I’ve been showing up late for far too many meetings lately.

Dim4 is outstanding. Good choice. But make one addition to the list of NTP servers: Add north-america.pool.ntp.org to the list and use it as authoritative. It spreads the load over lots of donated servers (126 of them as of today) rather than beating the heck out of the well known ones. Heck, my company even donates one of them.
See http://www.pool.ntp.org/use.html for more information about using the pool, or http://www.pool.ntp.org/join.html for info on volunteering a server.
