Publisher's description of ATnotes
From Thomas Ascher:ATnotes is a program that creates Post-it-like notes on the Windows desktop. The user interface is provided through an icon on the taskbar. Notes are fully customizable in fonts, colors, sizes, and in many other aspects of appearance (e.g., text color and border color for each note, each setup appearance can be saved as a profile to be restored quickly). Each note can have a single or repeated alarms, with visual and audio alarm signal. Notes can be hidden until manually activated or until a specified date/time. You can minimize notes to the first line of text and restore the note size to fit the whole text. It supports opening URLs, e-mail addresses, and file shortcuts in notes with the associated program.

Editor's review of ATnotes

- "ATnotes"
- Version reviewed: ATnotes 9.5
Those in the market for a simple, free program for jotting down quick notes and creating desktop reminders will not be disappointed with ATnotes.
Right-clicking the system tray icon lets you determine how your notes appear and behave. You'll find options for changing the note color as well as the font type, size, and color. Notes can display texts such as the date and time when you launched it. Right-clicking a note lets you access other options, including the ability to insert file, URL, or program shortcut in the note and schedule reminder alarms (with the ability to select an accompanying WAV file). Also, you can set recurring reminders and alert you by flashing the note or launching an application when it expires. Moreover, ATnotes has hot-key support, and allows you to search and organize notes into folders.
The ability to password-protect notes or choose an application or document on which they will appear would've been great. But, as is, its functionality suits busy home or business users alike. Overall, ATnotes is easy to use, effective, and best of all, free.

Version: ATnotes 9.5
"It's the best one out there."
Pros: I like the way that the notes look, clean and simple. Great customization options with a easy to use interface. Love the alarms and hotkeys.
I didn't think that ATnotes would work on Vista, so I tried the other note programs and just didn't like them, and I was willing to pay.
Turns out that ATnotes works great on my Vista Home Premium 32bit.

Pros: I haven't tried a lot of other note-taking programs, but I'm impressed with the functionality of this one. Pretty versatile for a free program and it seems to work fine on Vista.

"Best software at the moment."
Pros: Easy-to-use software. It stores every note into a database in case you need them someday. Provides search features which you can use to locate items quickly. User-customable layout of new notes is decent.
Cons: Users can't define the default size of the popup interface. When entering a relatively long memo, it will go out of the screen. Some compatible issues with display but much affordable. When using CAD-like software, the notes don't hide well behind the programs and there are black rectangles left. May be caused by drivers, not so sure though.
