[CQ-Contest] Need a clock?

I just found a neat freeware program which places a clock on your desktop. 
I know, there are hundreds of similar apps, but this one is just right. Not 
too big, not too small, and just enough configurability. The clock display 
is about .25" high by 1" wide and shows hours, minutes and seconds. It can 
be set to show UTC or local time and the colors are changeable. You can 
have it start when Windows starts or start it manually if you create a 
shortcut. You can drag it to any position on the desktop and it stays on 
top of all other windows. The zip file is only 39kb. Amazing! Whoever wrote 
this must have had us hams in mind. I don't get enthusiastic over software 
much, but this is a keeper.

Give it a try, you'll like it.
