- Thanks to all that replied!
- I'm now using the ReadEClock() which apeared to be much simpler than it
- looked the first time I saw it.
- It works very well and it's precise enough for me.
- Only thing that I'm wondering is about PowerPC's. The reference manual
- mentions that the EClock is a hardwareclock of the 680x0-series. Will my
- software still run on PowerPC's?

- Anyway, thanks again!
