[reading issue] The real-world use cases deal with getting this information from other devices (network cards, GPS, particle accelerators, etc.), so it's not really a matter of cross-computer accurancy, but relative accuracy (i.e. how long did something take?). All in all, looks like a good idea. -- ~Ethan~
