ISP Information:
This refers to what is most probably the final extension to the parallel ATA connection standard. The proposal was created by Maxtor, and allows a top data transfer rate of 133 megabytes per second. Intel didn't support this standard in its chipsets, instead opting to wait for Serial ATA. See Serial ATA for further details.

ATA/133 - Stanley settled back into the couch, and John R Covert said to him: Re the difference between GPS time and UTC (Jay Ashworth) Er, no. The time displayed by a GPS receiver, which will correct the base time by adding the leap second correction contained within the message transmitted by the satellites, will be right in synch with UTC. Otherwise lots of things would be broken.But not everyone bothers, because it's (apparently) switchable whetherthe receiver applies the correction. Notably, my PrimeCo CDMAcellphone, which was locked to GPS time, changed minutes, quitereliably, 13 seconds off.I can't imagine it's anything else -- they don't much care if it'saccurate to the second, so they don't bother.Cheers,Jay R.
