/**
* Implements the {@link MediaTimer} interface using {@link System#currentTimeMillis} to obtain
* timing information.
*
* Note: {@link System#currentTimeMillis} is notoriously inaccurate on different
* platforms. See
* bug report 4486109 for more information.
*
*
Also note: clock drift on Windows XP is especially pronounced and is exacerbated by
* the fact that WinXP periodically resyncs the system clock with the hardware clock, causing
* discontinuous jumps in the progression of time (usually backwards in time).
