I checked out dimension 4 after scott mentioned it at the meeting -- very
nice! Aside from being free still, it has many more useful options
including the ability to connect with protocols other than sntp.
A question for anyone with an authoritative opinion -- given the choice of
protocol, what one should we be encouraging in connection with time.mit.edu?
