"reasonably accurate" means different things to different people...

To an NTP geek, or someone who has to clock a synchronous network, it's 
somewhere in the 10^(-6) or better range.

To someone who just wants logged timestamps with the correct day+month in,
everything that's not off by more than a few seconds is good enough... :-)
