Hello !

A couple of years ago I have read on your site that the Apple architecture 
(the Mac) has a major design flaw regarding the measuring of time, flaw 
which shows up only in xxxBSD, and not under the Classic MacOS (I can not 
find that article any more).

By now, the BSD based OSX was born, but until recently I didn't find any 
report of this design flaw showing up in OSX. An Apple specialist wrote me 
that he happilly ran YDL 2.3 on his iBook. After a while he decided to make 
a dual boot system, installing OSX also. And surprise: every time he booted 
in YDL after that he had to connect to a time server in order to readjust 
the system time !!

Can you tell me more about that ? Was there any action from Apple regarding 
this fault ? Did they correct it starting with some model ?

I have also wrote to Apple, but no answer came.


Thank you in advance for your time,

Cristian
