Since the Sparcstations now have speakers attached I wonder why Sun could
make the booting procedure a little more spicy -- I mean, now when you
power up your desktop, all the diagnostic messages are displayed on
screen.  Wouldn't it be nice if music (e.g. playing Bach or whatever)
could be added to the procedure so that if something went sour during the
boot, you can "hear" it ?

Oh well, just a thought.
