Dema Virtual Notes 2005

Editors' ReviewDownload.com staffNovember 8, 2008This free sticky-notes program gives you the basics but isn't as intuitive as some other freeware competitors. Dema Virtual Notes 2005 allows you to append multiple notes to your screen. Of course, you'll find options for changing the note color, as well as the font type, size, and color. Right-clicking a note lets you access other options, including the ability to insert a BMP image in the note. At first, we couldn't figure out how to set an alarm. After fiddling with the program, we learned you have to right-click the tiny title bar to the top of each note to configure an alarm; we can see how some users might miss this entirely, especially since there's no help file. The alarm feature lets you use your own music files as notification but cannot set recurring reminders. Dema Virtual Notes 2005 is fine for simple reminder tasks, but we wouldn't settle on it without first testing some of the other free products in this category.
