Here is the introduction on the home page for the site I mentioned above. I have a friend who uses this program and loves it.

Welcome to Steve's Talking Clock, a small, customizable talking clock for Windows! This program can live in the Windows system tray and be configured to
automatically announce the time on the quarter-hour, half-hour, three-quarters, and at the top of the hour. In addition, an alarm can be set to announce
itself for any time of the day. Configurable hotkeys, support for multiple clock types, configurable audio output, and a quiet mode make this program unique.
Unlike other talking clocks for Windows, this program is designed so that you can use any clock voice you wish, and a different voice can be configured
for each announcement.

I kinda object when I get asked to pay for functions that are built into xp.
I'd paypal steve some money when he developes something that can not be done with out his or another program.
I like the alarm clock of justis but the url escapes me.
One nice feature is that when using a laptop, you are able to put it into hybination and it will automaticly wake up when the alarm is due to go off.
Its free btw.
