I coded me a program that measures time for Rubik's cube.
The reason is that I didn't know that there are already good programs like the jnetcube or something. anyway, you can download my program at the link at the end of the post. its a 50kb ms-dos program, I suggest running in full-screen mode for the accurate displaying. After you open it, hit any normal key(not f** or something weird) and except 'x' (the quit key), it will do the 3 second countdown with normal beeps from comp BIOS and do a high pitch beep which means you grab the cube and start solving. When solved, hit any normal key on the keyboard (you may hit a little hard, and may hit a keystroke of 3 keys max, so just hit the keyboard), it will display the result (the timer measures up to 5 numbers after the dot of the seconds number) for 10 seconds and restart.
I think it might be useful for those who don't have those devices that I don't have too. That is a very simple program, it doesn't tell you how to scramble, nor remember records, but if this program will get popular I will make all that.
NOTE:For people who are using Vista or 64Bit windowsXP, It might not work good. For people who have a dumb computer, the beeps wont sound cool
