You know I think its going up at an average speed taken from the last couple of months or something. and then they probably sync it to the real amount every few minutes or so. Otherwise it would use your bandwidth continuously to keep it accurate.

I know it isn't live simply because if you right click it and click properties it pauses it. Then when you close properties it continues from where you paused it.

That can't be real, it was approaching 1 Billion last night/this morning and the amount it was counting up since would suggest it'd be well into the billion mark by now. It can't be live or updated with the real amount, otherwise it'd shoot up to a random amount (or down depending) every few minutes/hours/days. If it is fake, that's pretty poor of Apple Infact, the idea they have a countdown timer is pretty strange... Just tell everyone in a keynote or send out information to all major magazine and review websites telling the news.
