time + accuracy

Hi....I want to know what is the time accuracy that a
linux box can achieve....
I know that my question is not absolutely
specific-related  with the discussions of this mailing
list... but i need your knowledge on this point..

I want to set up a ntp server and the guys from the
ntp mailing-list told me that linux boxes lose
frequent time interrupts..
What is the accuracy a linux clock can achieve? I know
that the kernel can show  a very small timestamp but
this doesn't mean that has and the same accuracy.
As u can understand i want to discuss about the linux
time kernel architecture and the accuracy a pc running
linux can guarantee...
Thx

I am all ears...
Thx a lot
Paleos Alexandros
