The same chip (or whatever you would call this thing) apparently is sold
by JADE, but is called the "no-slot-clock" and is directed towards the IBM
PC. "Installs easily in the motherboard or option boards of any computer
with a 28-pin PROM socket", they say.  No word on software.  Price: $49.
Personally, I'd wait till is comes closer to the price of a clock chip
and a pair of batteries added up.

I also think it's kinda' funny that the solution for a computer with 2 clocks
is a third one.  Are you folks at Atari going to have a perrenial clock in
some future model?
