I've been seeing a strange problem on my 486/SX-25 clone: it seems
to keep track of the hours/minutes alright, but it loses a day on
the calendar every once-in-awhile.  It's happens about once every week
or two.

Seems to me like if the battery is bad (shouldn't be anyway since it's
a new system) it would affect *both* the time and date in bizzare ways.

Thanks for any help!
