Computer = Alarm Clock

Does anyone use their computer as an alarm clock, and if so what programs do you use?

I'm very fond of WakeMeUp. it plays an Mp3 or Cd through the systems sound card to wake you up at a desired time. Want a 15minute snooze? just hit the space bar.

A bunch of people I know use their blackberries from work as their alarm clocks.

i use a program called gAlarm

its pretty decent. the only bad thing is that i can't save my preferences.
so everytime i start the program, i have to manually put in what time it goes off.

I have a program called College Alarm Clock. Let's you set different times for different days if you want, plus can use your own sounds/mp3s as the alarm.

Huh, I didn't know that there was specific software for this.

I just used Windows Task Scheduler. I set it to run a "program", pick my MP3 to run, and set the time. Windows auto starts Winamp, which the night before I cranked up the volume all the way, and it works fine. With the skin I have selected too, it takes me a few minutes to find the little x, in which time I get good and awake.

Now that I know different products, though, I may try them out. Thanks for the info.
