What is the best alarm clock and answering machine programs I can use with XP?

[JackBurton]

I need two programs, an alarm clock and an answering machine with caller ID that I can run on my Windows XP machine. I don't know of any good programs like these so I'm asking you guys for some help. What do you use or recommend?

[JackBurton]

I have been using Citrus alarm clock for a couple fo months now, it works pretty well. I have it play mp3's of Saturday Night fever "burn baby burn, burn that mother down"

I like the Fade in option so instead of getting startled to hell it gradually fades in the music.

I am still looking for a alarm clock (Computer) that has a SNOOZE function. I need that extra 6 minutes or so to gather myself.

A friend of mine told me that advanced call center is pretty good, although I have no first hand experience with it...

No! SNOOZE buttons are evil! Just say no to SNOOZE buttons! I've slept for 2 and a half hours, pressing that darned button every four minutes! They should stop putting them on alarm clocks because they get in the way of the whole purpose for the alarm clock in the first place!

 

[Doh!]

I used to use this software which came with one of the computers purchased ages ago. It did as advertised & kind of fun recording the phone conversation. I haven't used it since getting a digital answering machine a couple of years ago.

I was actually looking for something like that earlier on...and I'm quite surprised MS didn't bother to include such a function in its clock...even in XP.

gentobu, I downloaded ACC and it looks pretty cool.
