Jeepers, to borrow a running gag from rec.humor, shouldn't this one be
#56?

Just because the Mac is billed to be the 'manual-less" computer
doesn't mean you shouldn't read it!!!!!!!  Read the part about the
desk accessories that come with your System.  You'd have found out
that it is blinking because the Alarm went off in the Alarm Clock.
Your dealer could probably have helped you as well.
