Anybody using Win95 who bought Windows 95 Secrets by Brian Livington and
David Straub will find a stopwatch program on the accompanying CD-ROM. I
just stumbled over the program today while installing my new hard drive.
The blurb for it says:
Stop Watch2 2.02 38kb Shareware by Eric Bergmen-Terell
With a support address on CompuServe.
I haven't tried this myself (yet), but I'd be happy to pass it along to any
interested parties.
Also, allow me to extend my thanks to those who offered advice on my
estimating question. I shall post a summary (if anyone thinks it wouldn't
be an unnecessary repetition of data in the archives), once I'm finished
this document.
