That (or rather, 2061), is 2^32 seconds from an epoch date of 1925. I'm not familiar with any systems that use 1925 as epochs.

For Unix, it's Jan 1, 1970.

For DOS, I believe it's Jan 1, 1900, though with a leap-year error (there is a Feb 29, 1900 included that shouldn't be).

For SAS (statistical software), it's Jan 1, 1960.

Apple should use the Unix Epoch.

Curious.
