Windows and Mac alarm clock programs

I recently purchased a Macbook Pro and have been happy ever since. I have found that most programs on the Mac are great tools, easy to use, and in most cases free. I did purchased for $12.95 a great program for the Mac titled, Awaken 4. The program integrates with iTunes to set up alarms or egg timers to play your selected music just when you want it to. Awaken 4 goes beyond anything you would need in an alarm clock program and is a fantastic utility. The developer also promotes free updates for life and with that, how can you go wrong?

But if $12.95 is just not in your budget and you have a Mac, you could use Alarm Clock 2. Similar to Awaken 4, but lacks the nice user interface and a few less bells and whistles. However, for a free program, it will do the job and do it well.

For my Windows friends out there, iSnooze is a free windows application similar to Awaken 4 and Alarm Clock2. Providing similar functionality for the Windows platform.

These programs all offer multiple alarms, increase voluming, visuals, and sleep timers. Now you have no excuse when your traveling and your alarm clock does not go off.  You can download anyone of these applications and it can become your main or backup alarm.
