I must admit I hate the idea of a built-in 60th second sleep or anything else
as I am fed up with going through all sorts of programs changing 60 to 50 for
use in Europe where the power is 50HZ.

Then of course someone is bound to come out with a machine which offers some
other basic clock frequency.  Unless there is a system call to go with it which
tells me that I'd rather not have it.
