From: Jim Scott on 1 Mar 2006 19:40 I used to use a systray 'clock' called saytime95 which speaks the time on the hour or when you choose. I quite liked that. Is there a more modern application which works with XP? -- Jim Tyneside UK

However, it is not freeware and is therefore off-topic in this newsgroup. -- Regards, Nicolaas. Pricelessware 2006 CD now available. E-Mail for details: raptor740.gmail(a)com (swap "." and "@") ....

I found it, installed it and it works fine, even on XP. -- Jim Tyneside UK

I downloaded and installed. It seems to work fine. I think I prefer the voice in Saytime95. -- Jim Tyneside UK |
