CNET Editors' review
This freeware application helps track your blood pressure readings, but has some bugs to work out. Blood Pressure Recorder's single interface combines your input with output. Unfortunately, the input calendar's pulldown selection tool labels each month as January. You'll have to take care to pick the correct month.
Blood Pressure Recorder lets you log your systolic and diastolic measures as well as your pulse rate. Other information like time of the day or health condition can be easily added in the comments field. You can preview graphs and reports prior to printing. We like that the program automatically plots input on a graph appearing just below the interface.
The multiple January problem wasn't our only hitch. The UI drops to the taskbar when you click the View Report button. However, the interface won't come back into focus. You must force the program to close with Task Manager. Overall, Blood Pressure Recorder's buggy performance keeps us from recommending it to any level user.

"Lost my data."
Version: Blood Pressure Recorder 1
Pros
Simple one screen interface.
Cons
When I tried to fix data keyed for a previous date and I used the backspace to clear the field, I lost days of data. I think the backspace caused all prior days to blank out, not just the data field being corrected. (Not wasting more time testing).
Summary
Losing my data is unforgivable. FAIL

"One Time Use Great ~ not for serious tracking"
Version: Blood Pressure Recorder 1
Pros
Installed well, worked first time, nice user interface, report quick and ideal with a good print * Please See 'CONS' * Good uninstall too !
Cons
On the XP platform SPII with plenty of Ram once printed report is used it drops to task bar and then will not come back into focus or use, even with task manager. Plus can not save data. Not for me, shame.
