time.clock() and precision...

[Steven Adams]

on a related note: is there a way to get time.clock() on WindowsCE to clock
with any more precision than a single second - it outputs a float, but it
effectively only gives integers

e.g.
>>> time.clock()
966081403.0
>>> print time.clock(); time.sleep(2); print time.clock()
966081797.0
966081799.0
