InerziaTimer is a simple but powerful countdown/chronometer/alarm clock for the Mac, completely written in Cocoa. You won't lose a second again, with InerziaTimer!
InerziaTimer does exactly what real chronometers do: if you can measure it with a professional chronometer, you can do the same with your Mac. With a precision of 1/100 seconds, you'll be able to time about everything with a precision never seen before. And there are features for every need: simple shortcuts, laps, export and customization are all available in InerziaTimer.
Even digital wristwatches have a

Nice interface indeed. (Although the colorful logo does not match...)
However, there's a little problem: the alarm clock rings 20 seconds AFTER the exact time. If I set it to 12:00, it rings at 12:00:20 and not at 12:00:00 as it should. Maybe this issue will be corrected in the next version.
It would be nice too if you could set several timers, just like Timer Utility does.
But thank you for making this free.
First of all, thank you for spending few minutes writing this comment!
The issue you're talking about is related to the moment when you have clicked the "Set" button, because the application uses seconds to compare the two dates. It will be fixed in the next version!
More than one timer is a feature that we would like to add later: stay tuned!

InerziaTimer is a simple but powerful countdown/chronometer/alarm clock for the Mac, completely written in Cocoa. You won't lose a second again, with InerziaTimer!

And there are features for every need: simple shortcuts, laps, export and customization are all available in InerziaTimer.
Even digital wristwatches have a countdown built-in, so why your Mac doesn't have one? InerziaTimer is the lightest and fastest countdown software available for your Mac: it starts up in about 3 seconds, uses only 22MB of RAM (iTunes, for example requires about two times the memory of InerziaTimer) and it's only 2MB on your disk!
Version 2.0 introduces the Alarm Clock: are you tired of work? Take a comfortable sit, starts iTunes and set up InerziaTimer to wake you up in 15 minutes! That's all: InerziaTimer will do the rest!
InerziaTimer uses the latest technologies available in Mac OS X Leopard and higher, to ensure the best user experience: 64bit support, low CPU/RAM usage and other great things like these, are our keywords in building InerziaTimer. Try yourself: you'll be amazed!

About all one could ask for is for a "Time Remaining" feature when the Alarm Clock is activated.
Apple should pay the developer a bundle, and then, with the data rights, add it to the Date & Time preference.
