When the apple blinks it's telling you that the alarm clock is set. To turn off the
blink go into the apple menu, select alarm clock, click on the the little flag in
the right top corner. Select the little alarm clock, click on the slide switch (on
the left). Close alarm clock. The blink is gone. So is the beep you hear when you
boot the machine (just before is gives you control of the mouse.
