The board time is almost always incorrect. In the year I have been reading I have only seen it be correcct twice and it didn't stay correct very long. It is a mystery to me why.

There's no excuse for having the time wrong. There are plenty of free clock-setting programs and plenty of accurate free SNTP servers all over the world. I don't know what O/S Ed runs this system on, so I can't make a specific recommendation, but regardless of what it is, it's EASY to maintain the clock to within a fraction of a second of true time.

For those of you running Windows and who'd like to have your clock accurate, go get yourself DS clock here: http://www.dualitysoft.com/download.html#dsc It's arguably the best of the lot and it's easy to install and gives you lots of display options.
