[time-nuts] Lady Heather W/O a PC: Alternative

Another problem is that people might like to also run NTP server using
their Thunderbolt and the Windows OS that LH uses is a very poor choice for
NTP, so you'd need a second computer.  Best to put both on a little ARM
powered board.

======================================

Whilst Windows is not the optimum choice for running an NTP server (is 
FreeBSD or Linux better these days?), the performance as a stratum-1 server 
may be quite adequate for many applications.  See, for example:

A Raspberry Pi can do better.
