Quick idea - can you add the ability to create a reoccuring option... like Monday, Tues, Wed, Thur, Fri - at 7:30 - play ALARM.MP3.... also can you add a adjustable snoose???

Done! Added an option for events to happen regularly and the clock updates itself as such :p

hey thats awesome! I got it counting down until my B-day:) but umm, if you try to move an icon behind the counter (when its transparent on the desktop) the icon gets stuck. That may be something hard to fix, but I thought I'd let you know.

The CPU usage used to be really low, then I added milliseconds. Would anyone really miss it if I pulled them out again??

Latest version has the option of having just floating text, and no background.

I'll upload the source after this round of updates/fixes.

Well, if your like me and NEVER turn your computer off, you just need 4 varibles, VB, and a timer that tinks every one seconds.

Have a SEC, MIN, HR, DAY varibles and the tiemr control. Hell, here would eb the code.

Dim SEC, MN, HR, DAY as Integer

SEC = 0

MN = 0

HR = 0

DAY = 0

-------------------------------------

(on the timer set for 1000)

SEC = SEC + 1

If SEC >= 60 then

MN = MN + 1

SEC = 0

End if

If MN >= 60 then

HR = HR + 1

MN = 0

End if

If HR >= 24 then

DAY = DAY + 1

HR = 0

End if

If DAY >= 21 then

Label1.Caption = "PICK YOUR DAMN GIRLFRIEND UP!"

DAY = 0

End if

There ya go, its a hard coded 3 week count down. For the record, i use military time.

    • Yeah, sure. Everyone just convert their PC with all their data and apps to Linux today. Most people do not know what Linux is, wouldn't know which of the dozen or 2 versions would be the best fit for them nor have any idea how to install it. I have no problem with Linux being the underlying operating system for commercial devices sold and maintained by organizations. Microsoft needs to get their act together, listen to their general user's complaints and release a productive, user friendly W12. All the good things under the hood but an easy to use interface.

    • Yeah, I'e said it myself couple of comments prior. Doesn't solve a problem that I can't play my Xbox games on a these PCs.
    • I've seen people/companies/governments try this move several times before and they still end up going back to Windows. Maybe this time they will have more success. Will be interesting.
