I'm told that the sound is the momentum of the platters being used to rachet the head back to safe parking. You should notice that the sound changes depending on what program you ran before shutdown. Nothing to worry about, they all do it, many with a distinct CLICK at the end of the sound. -- bill davidsen (davidsen@crdos1.crd.GE.COM -or- uunet!crdgw1!crdos1!davidsen) "The world is filled with fools. They blindly follow their so-called 'reason' in the face of the church and common sense. Any fool can see that the world is flat!" - anon
