Terry:  I bought Smart Alarms and Appointment Calendar last summer and have
already trashed them.  If you're a technoturnip who doesn't want anything other
than programmed alarms for your mac with a free-form "note pad" for your
appointments andnotes, fine.  But I couldn't get anything done with it.

I bought DayMaker a couple of months ago and it is working better.  It's
version 1, so I hope version 2 contains some major upgrades.  It works
muchbetter than Smart Alarms did, but lacks ability to schedule regular or
repeating items.  Also, you'll put about 5,000 miles on your mouse in making up
your daily schedule.  

The bright side is that it's a good base to start from and v2 should include
many of the improvements that have been suggested.  Whenever it comes out...
