Hello!
I don't want to sound like the one to spoil the party, but in general
Windows programming terminology the term "tick" can mean different things.
For example, System.Environment.TickCount also returns "ticks" (like the
GetTickCount Win32 API function), but the resolution is (at most) one
millisecond (1000 milliseconds = 1 second).
But in the original context (TimeSpan etc.) the 100 nanosecond resoltion is
correct, as returned by TimeSpan.TicksPerSecond (as Jon already suggested).
