I'm looking for a simple timer program. What I want is a simple timer that will time rounds (as in boxing) to use when I work out at home.

(...) Ahh, simple: Buy two 4-minute repeating wind-up timers. Start one, wait 60 seconds, then start the other. There you have it. :-) --Todd (25 years ago, 22-Jul-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) I'll let you borrow my microwave oven. It can be programmed in a timer mode, with several steps in the program. But you have to have it back before dinnertime! Steve (25 years ago, 22-Jul-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Geez, I barely remember a microwave comment. I don't even remember the context. But it seems to be haunting me this week. :') (25 years ago, 22-Jul-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)

(...) Come to think of it, a flying microwave oven while still plugged in will cause heat to be generated -- thus it's a thermo-nuclear ballistic weapon. And, if you toss it across the peaks of the Ural Mountains, it becomes an intercontinental (...) (25 years ago, 22-Jul-99, to lugnet.off-topic.geek)
