Reason to switch to Linux #11


Windows taskbar clock cannot display seconds since Windows 95.
Why? Because when installed on a 4 Mb machine, Windows 95 was too slow to display seconds. This and other lame excuses are blogged at MSDN. There is a whole shareware industry around Windows to fix this problem. If you want to measure time, use online javascript stop watch or US atomic clock at time.gov
