Make Your Computer Greet You When You Use It

I noticed one day how rude my computer was to me. When I turned it on all it did was show the boot screen and then made me log in. When I logged in, expecting a welcome I just heard a logon sound. Well it isn't that impolite since the computer never knew I wanted it to do that but I still I would like it to have some manners. 

You will need.

A Windows 98 (or higher) Computer
Notepad (The program not the real thing)
5 minutes (unless your computer runs at a snail's pace)

Step 1: Open Notepad

First we need to open notepad to write the script.

Click Start>All Programs>Notepad

Step 2: The Code

Now copy this into notepad...
Where it says user you can put your name.

Set Sapi = Wscript.CreateObject("SAPI.SpVoice")

dim str

if hour(time) < 12 then
Sapi.speak "Good Morning User"
else
if hour(time) > 12 then
if hour(time) > 16 then
Sapi.speak "Good evening User"
else
Sapi.speak "Good afternoon User"
end if
end if
end if

Sapi.speak "The current time is "

if hour(time) > 12 then
Sapi.speak hour(time)-12
else
if hour(time) = 0 then
Sapi.speak "12"
else
Sapi.speak hour(time)
end if
end if


if minute(time) < 10 then
Sapi.speak "o"
if minute(time) < 1 then
Sapi.speak "clock"
else
Sapi.speak minute(time)
end if
else
Sapi.speak minute(time)
end if

if hour(time) > 12 then
Sapi.speak "P.M."
else
if hour(time) = 0 then
if minute(time) = 0 then
Sapi.speak "Midnight"
else
Sapi.speak "A.M."
end if
else
if hour(time) = 12 then
if minute(time) = 0 then
Sapi.speak "Noon"
else
Sapi.speak "P.M."
end if
else
Sapi.speak "A.M."
end if
end if
end if

Step 3: Save Me!

This step is important. Make sure that you follow this carefully.

Name it something like welcome.vbs .

It can be named anything as long as you give it the .vbs file extension. 

Step 4: Where It Goes

Now click start and go to 

All Programs>Startup

Then drag the file to the startup folder.

Note: In Windows Vista and 7 (Not sure about others) This will only run in your user, unless you do the same thing on all users. 

Step 5: You're Done!

Now restart your computer...

It should say good morning, evening, or afternoon and then the time.

Like always report any problems this program has to me.
