I searched high and low for a very simple, free date display for my desktop. This one is the absolute best by far. Simply adds the date/time to your desktop. You can choose your fonts and colors, the size of the display (by changing font size), and the format in which the date/time are displayed. and you can move it anywhere. It also has a lot of other features(like an alarm, etc.)...all around, it is a wonderful little item! I was so tired of depending on the Windows clock for the date...because half the time, the date won't display. This is awesome!

This software, v2.2, is pure delight to me and although the paid version has lots more stuff included, this little fellow does better than well since I began using it some 4yrs ago, and, it has never ever given me any headaches, plus it's OS resources are almost ZERO. Check it out people, you'll be glad you did!

Yep, this is a very simple clock that you can drag into the task bar or keep on the desktop, very easy to use, doesn't get in the way. I gave it a 5 but would suggest a couple of things... Transparency: instead of onoff, create a level of transparency. Background: if using solid background, a way to grab a background pattern instead of solid color. Other than that, still perfect in my opinion, great work.

I've been looking for an unobtrusive world clock utility. This is it! Perfect! DS Clock can keep track of several time zones in a list format: per time zone selected, use "Literal Text" (from the 'Separator' parameter) to identify the time zone, and "Line Break" if you wish to generate a list of time zones. Just copy and paste the format code for each time zone. Excellent little utility! Versatile and very customizable. Highly recommended.

Though i wish it could go in the system tray, it is totally customizable. i have it right above sys tray time and its so much easier to see. the chime reminds me about the time (especially when gaming). overall, an excellent program.

Works well with XP home. Easy to configure.. I placed it into my status bar. Made it the same color as my status bar. I like it far better than the MS clock.

I've been using this program (vs 105) for over a year and it's a real gem! It looks great on my desktop and is truly a must have item. I don't know what they could have done to improve this program (new vs 106), since it's perfect as is.
