Subject: RE: Tech: How do get a Mac to shut up?
Many years ago, in the early days of Apple Macintosh computers, the basic sound effect when you did anything "wrong" was a simple beep. One Friday afternoon, someone got at a colleague's machine (no security in those days, either!) and replaced the beep with a sound file which produced, in a very smooth, sympathetic voice - "I'm sorry. I can't DO that."!
