[GRLUG] Time Clocks and Software

[Ben Rousch]

Although the clock is not open source, I like how this clock is very
self-contained:
http://www.icontime.com/products/hardware/universal/rtc-1000.asp

It looks like all of the software is on the clock itself and you
access it via a web browser over the LAN. It claims to have CSV (and
Quickbooks) exports of the data. Along with PIN punch-ins, there is
also a proximity badge add-on, which would be nice for those
extra-grubby hands in our shop.
