"Fantastic for XP but never worked for Vista"
Version: Atomic Alarm Clock 5.9
Pros
On XP it has a simple interface. Highly configurable. Functions smoothly in background. Simultaneous display of 2 timezones. Alarms and reminders can be set for years in advance, repeating or one time. Skinnable with a large variety of Skins.
Cons
No updates in over a year. Never worked with Vista even when set in compatibility for XP, No support from developer. Limited patterns on repeating alarms. Can only check 2 time zones without reconfiguring
Summary
If you are running Windows XP then download this, you won't regret it. Fantastic utility and light on system resources. For any operating system after that pass it by until the developer starts updating it again. It won't work.
I've discovered the problem with this product and Vista. It only works with Vista 32 bit operating systems. You would think the developer would list that somewhere.

"Does not work with Win 7 - very disappointed"
Version: Atomic Alarm Clock 5.85
Pros
I LOVE this product. I have used it with XP for quite some time now, purchased a license and have really enjoyed all of it's features.
Cons
I am very disappointed that it will not work on Win7. Does anyone have knowledge of a comparable product that actually runs on 7? If I had realized this, I may not have purchased a license in the first place.
Summary
Great product - but if you plan on upgrading to any 64-bit OS, you will need to find an alternative until they decide to upgrade their own compatibility.

"NO 64 BIT SUPPORT"
Version: Atomic Alarm Clock 5.85
Pros
This is a most excellent program while I was on Vista 32bit. i use it to know what the date is (the most annoying missing thing from windows). And i use it to know how long computer has been up. This is, 8 hours = home time LOL.
Cons
NO 64bit support.
I have tried to get this program to work on my Vista 64bit and later my Windows 7 64bit. I have tried a number of cmpatibility tricks to no avail. I have tried emailing the company and they don't reply. I bought my key! -
"I just love the simplicity of the atomic alarm clock."
Version: Atomic Alarm Clock 5.85
Pros
It's simple to setup and use on windows XP,and how it integrates into the start menu.
Cons
Price,There are too many other alarm clocks on line that are free to use.
Summary
Once you have installed atomic alarm clock,you will see for yourself just how simple it is to use and setup.The option of a 12hr.format,with the day name or the week number,blinking time separator and much more.Skins,there's plenty of skins to go around,and if you need more, just a couple of clicks and download them.Alarm settings for any time frame you desire,whether opening documents or shutting down the computer,and multitude sounds.The integration with windows XP and Vista is amazing.I've just installed Atomic Alarm Clock on my wife's computer,which has Vista and she loves it,and I have windows XP.Perfect in every way.

""Great Alarm Clock/Reminder for Taking My Medication!""
Version: Atomic Alarm Clock 5.85
Pros
I've been using this clock daily. It is a must have for people on meds. It can very well be a life saver. It can be made personable, depending on each user.
Cons
I'm happy with it but if I had to pick, I would say too many skins to choose from.
Summary
The Atomic Alarm Clock is very easy to use yet has the all the main functions needed for an alarm clock. It also makes the tray clock fully custom. My favorite feature is the reminder.
I take medication multiple times a day and the" Atomic Alarm Clock" is EXACTLY what I need. I set the times, put in the medications needed for those times, set the tones I want it to sound like and that's it. I even set reminder's to go off for when I miss the alarm and the reminder goes sounds at the intervals I set it for. Many other features but easy to use!
