Yeah, I saw that. Same time in my inbox, too. ;^)

It says on the front of the case "IBM eserver", but the "e" sort of looks like an "@". Also printed on the front of the case is "x220."
I have no idea if there is a service processor installed in the box.
Here is the output of lspci:
00:00.0 Host bridge: ServerWorks CNB20LE Host Bridge (rev 06) 00:00.1 Host bridge: ServerWorks CNB20LE Host Bridge (rev 06) 00:01.0 VGA compatible controller: S3 Inc. Savage 4 (rev 04) 00:09.0 Ethernet controller: Intel Corp. 82557/8/9 [Ethernet Pro 100] (rev 08) 00:0f.0 ISA bridge: ServerWorks OSB4 South Bridge (rev 50) 00:0f.1 IDE interface: ServerWorks OSB4 IDE Controller 00:0f.2 USB Controller: ServerWorks OSB4/CSB5 OHCI USB Controller (rev 04) 01:03.0 SCSI storage controller: Adaptec AIC-7892P U160/m (rev 02)
There is a 2nd Intel e100 interface on the motherboard ("planar" in IBM-speak), but that has been set to "disabled" in the BIOS for some reason. Re-enabling it has no effect on the time skew, nor does the USB legacy support that worked for someone else on a different system.
Strange, huh?
