My 20 Meg hard drive croaked a little while ago.
If you watch closely, you'll see that that access
light on the disk is beeping "S.O.S."  in Morse code.
Cute.

P.S. I've been told that this means that the boot track
is hosed, and signifies a h.w. problem that can only be
fixed by replacing the disk.  I tried reinitializing the
h.d., but it couldn't be found by the Apple initializing
prog.
