Okay, I was just curious. Most places I've seen aren't as "religious" about the use of NTP. Not that there's anything wrong with that. :)

NTP is integral to keeping the NYSE, SIAC, and Amex clocks in sync. We use it on everything so that all trading is accurate on all systems to within milliseconds of each other, which is crucial when billions of messages have to be ordered, stored, processed, and then compared at the end of the trading day.
