An iMac's Firmware sound when updating it is the same as the Mac Plus's startup sound  Jeremy "I'll see you on the Dark Side Of The Moon" - Pink Floyd Covert Ops

Yeah. The 'Bong" that my iMac makes was nice at first, but its waaay overused. They've used it since the release of the first PCI Power Macs in 1995. Its about as drab as a beige generic PC case now. I would kill to replace it with a TAM boot sound, a NuBus PowerMac boot sound, a SE/II/PowerBook 100 boot sound, or even the one that is made by Quadras and later LCs, or the one made by PPC Performas. Of course, i can't get enough of the bong sound made by Classic IIs and LCs.  But whatever Apple, please get rid of the current "bong" sound. You've overused it waaaay too much. -------------------------- Pizzabox LCs RULE!!!!!!! Warrior maclover5

Didn't they change it somewhere between PowerMacs and G3s? I coulda sworn...Anyway, did you know that when you start up the Classic Compatibility Layer (MacOS.app) in OS X Server (version 1.x) it makes a very non-G3 sounding startup chime? ~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit

Somewhere I downloaded sound files of all the Mac startup bongs and chimes of doom. Nothing freaks people out like putting a system 7 sound file of the chimes of doom in the startup items folder. I can not for the life of me remember where I downloaded them from though. I guess it is time to upload something to the hotline server...AnubisTTP, Tank Commander, Bolo Division

I used to have all the ones up to the early PPCs - I think it was from the MacWorld Mac Secrets CD.~Coxy - Leader, Tactical Operations Unit
