I AGREE!  I have noticed that newer Apple software (notably Finder 4.1) beeps
much less, but the ONE beep that I can NOT get rid of (even with the lovely
Control Panel) is the Power On beep.  ANNOYING.

By the way, responses to this message having to do with the Resume command are
NOT solutions.  This is about restarting the Mac, not how to add Resume to an
application.
