I am curious as to which program people prefer more and WHY they prefer it: Smart Alarms by JAM Software, or Alarming Events by CE Software. Please send me e-mail on what your experiences are with either program and I will post the responses. Thanks. Jim Collymore

Jim,
FYI - there is a comparison of these two programs in the latest issue
of MacUser (February).
I hope this helps.

Note that the "Zedcor Desk" package comes with a DA called Desk Secretary which implements similar functions. Seems to me that there was something called "Comment" that had these functions in it, and there are also some shareware utilities. I used Smart Alarms a long time ago, and currently use the Desk Secretary part of Zedcor Desk. I don't know enough about the current versions of other packages to really compare Desk Secretary to them, though. Garance_Drosehn@mts.rpi.edu

I'm very fond of a shareware DA called Remember? by David Warker. The original Remember? was somewhat limited and buggy, but the latest (V2.1.1) is a very nice package. $20 shareware, an extra $5 gets you a disk with the latest version and some other bits and pieces on it. It's available on the Info-Mac archives at Sumex and various other sites. I haven't done a feature-by-feature comparison of Remember? and the packages you mention, but it certainly does everything I want.
