An interesting aside to both of these synchronization points is that "Set Clock" was written by Jim Leitch, the late co-founder of the Canadian company Leitch Technology Corp. (TSE:LVI), a manufacturer of television broadcast equipment used throughout the world including the video timecode equipment used in the synchronization of video frames to real time. leitch.com

I always set my computer using Set Clock, a freeware application that dials up an atomic clock in Washington DC and sets the Mac's time automatically.<snip> Imagine my surprise when, while visiting my non technical brother, I noticed that he had a digital clock that was synchronized to his VCR's digital clock to the second, and they were correct! He explained that his VCR sets itself (from time signals received in the video blanking of the local PBS station.) <snip>
