'Analogue Vista Clock', as the title suggests, is an analog clock. It resides on your desktop making it easy for you to see the exact time and date. It can be set transparent, so you won't be disturbed, if it stays on top of other applications.

In the trial version, you see it in your upper right corner of your screen and you can't change its position. In the full version, you can manually set it where to stay, you can specify a corner for it, set its diameter, or import new skins. You can only interact with the clock through the system tray button. If you want to click on its image, it's impossible and you will interact with what's beneath it. You can use it as an alarm clock, by setting the time and day when you want it to ring, as well as setting the sound. The sound can be selected from the five sounds included in the program or you can choose a custom one, if you are registered of course.

The user interface is very intuitive and even the most inexperienced user will find it easy to work with.

b>Pluses: Nice looking and offers many features. It can bring you computer out of standby.

Drawbacks / flaws:

In conclusion: It's a very interesting program. I enjoyed testing it.
