ASM can easily keep time better than a for loop.  The problem is creating a
clock accurate enough that it can run for days and not be off by even
seconds.  This isn't even too difficult until you throw in the problem of
adjusting for different battery speeds.  But even with the varying speeds, a
clock in asm would be infinetly more accurate than any clock that could be
made in basic.
