One for the AppleSpotters: If you put on Stereolab's Dots&Loops album, I dont remember exactly- but about track 2 or 3, if you turn it up about 2.5 or 3.5 minutes into one of those tracks ( I want to say its Miss Modular), youll hear the very distict sound of "Windowshading" (the sound the Mac makes when you double-click a windows title-bar) mixed in with other noise. Throughout Dots and loops you can hear Launcher-button clicks a couple of times as well. Not knowing this coupled with being all alone in the house with an herbalized brain really had me freaking for a few minutes! I was in the next room and thought for sure someone had broken in and was hiding my windows! ernie Ernesto Ikerd, (817) 763-4795 Company Graphics, Dept 17 Lockheed Martin Tactical Aircaft Systems Fort Worth, Texas
