BillsClock2



A complete re-write of the original BillsClock applet, one of Java Boutique's original applets ca. 1996, updated to support often-requested features, such as custom clock face images, chime on the hour and half-hour, plus the ability to optionally synchronize the time display with a network time server.

Author's Notes:
Note time synchronizations requires a third party package, but this is not required to run the applet.
