It's interesting how a NeXT can change a marraige.  My wife, Denise
(The C/Unix programming goddess that she is) and I have had ours for
over a year now and it certainly has made in impact on our relatioship
(aside from the usual things of "Honey would you get off the modem,
I'm getting a page from the hospital" or "Dean, you're always on that
silly thing.  When do I get my turn?")

Anyway, we noticed fairly quickly that with the Preferences in NS2.1
the volume settings are not individualized to the different users.
We both have loginhook sounds which are rather fun, but alas, Denise
developed serious AcChen addiction.  Thus, the problem.  I turn up the
volume to hear my system beeps, loginhooks and logouthooks.  When she
logs in to play AcChen and it screams "*WELCOME*" she turns around and
yells back at me for fiddling with the volume control.

So, I'm left pondering the question.  Does NS 3.0 allow for individual
setting of volume control by user?  I certainly hope so, since I can't
modulate the volumes on the AcChen binary (although I'd dearly love to)
since I love that game oh so much. (NOT!)
 
Otherwise we're stuck with the occasional spats of "You've been messing
with the volume again, haven't you!"

Peace (from dean, the physician who mungs Unix well)
