    Am I the only one out here that finds the beep that the mac makes on
power on to be annoying?  I'm doing some program development and everytime
I have to reset the machine everyone in the office knows that I've bombed
again!  IBM PC's don't beep, why should macs.  I hope the new ROMs I've been
hearing so much about eliminates the beep.
