Technical question...

How do I get my pc (running XP - it's at work obviously) to give me a chime on the hour? Or pop a little message up with the time? My mac does this very easily and I'm sure I've managed it on my Ubuntu box without too much trouble but XP seems entirely void of this functionality. Need a reminder each hour to take 5 mins to stretch my wrists out.

Please don't suggest I put lots of alarms in my Outlook calendar - its function as a calendar would be impaired with all that cluttering it up. And it's public and the rest of my staff might start thinking I'm weird. Well, weirder...

Thanks!

XWrits is the default choice for Unixen.

We tested RISGUARD which does a similar type of thing.
