One nifty-sounding MacII noise is produced when you hit the Interrupt switch 
while the "happy Mac" is showing.  Keep hitting the switch to hear more tones.

The first time this happened was a couple of days after getting my MacII.  I 
was debugging a program around 4:30 AM, when the system crashed *really* 
badly, and made that noise.  I almost fell out of my chair.
