Riddle me this: If your machine's offset to time.windows.com was 2.8 milliseconds and your machine's offset to time.nist.gov was 4.6 milliseconds, how can time.windows.com be off by 600 milliseconds? My tests show pretty much conclusively that time.windows.com is off from UTC by 10 milliseconds or less and off from time.nist.gov by 4 milliseconds or less. DS
