I don't think you have to explain to Toni how PAL or NTSC works

If you (would have) read the part from your quoted article under the header "color encoding", you'll understand that the NTSC rate for television is 59.94hz. Tables summarising these rates often round the NTSC rate to "60hz" for simplicity.

To make things more difficult for the layman, modern PC's and monitors have a specific PC "60hz" mode, which is PC specific and shouldn't be confused with NTSC. It's this PC "60hz" mode that you are running on your PC which WinUAE correctly detects. So you don't have a "deviation", but you're seeing the real refresh rate of your PC monitor screenmode.

If you're in doubt about that, just download the little Frequency Test tool here: http://www..com/?lycrjcm55j37n. This tool will take a minute or so to make the refresh rate reading. Most probably you'll notice that WinUAE's reading is very close.
