Computer/internet Sound Files

Here's another one, Rindy!

Boy you are just full of them.

Thanks once again

Can you tell I'm a fan of "The Matrix" movies ?

If I ever get a cell phone with voicemail, I may have what Keanu Reeves says at the end of the first movie as my outgoing message .

Yes I can tell. I really liked the first one the best. Kind of like Lord Of The Rings. A lot of people didn't understand either movie. Very hard to try and explain to someone also. I was going to do ring tones then found out my cell you have to have messages or something so I decided na.

OK, here are my new ones:

Startup:

From National Lampoon's Animal House:

Flounder: "Excuse me, sir. Is this the Delta house?"
Bluto: "Sure! Come on in!"

Shutdown:

Yosemite Sam: "Adios (long a), you chicken-pluckin' little stinker!"

Error:

Elmer Fudd: "There's something scwewwy goin' on here."

Mail:

The "Spam" song from Monty Python.

(my work computer only)

startup: (generic) "Thank you for pressing the self-destruct button. This ship will self-destruct in three seconds"

shut down (Marvin the Martian, i.e. Bugs Bunny): "Where's the kaboom? There was supposed to be an earth shattering kaboom!"

incoming e-mail (Worf, from Star Trek: the Next Generation): "Captain... incoming message!"

My home computer uses an assortment of sounds from HomestarRunner while my work has a variety of animal noises. A cow moo indicates I have an Instant Message, rooster crow is my new mail, crickets on shutdown and a lion roar greets me on startup but since I rarely ever shutdown or reboot, I don't hear the latter ones as much.

I used to have a clip from UHF as my error sound but you can only take having the computer scream "Stupid! YOU'RE SO STUUUPID!" at you so many times in a day.

My Windows startup sound is the Dolby THX thingie (heard at the start of Star Wars movies).

I finally found a startup sound I was looking for!

I may give some of you a flashback to the 70's with this one...

"Welcome back, my friends, to the show that never ends/We're so glad you could attend/Come inside, come inside" -Emerson, Lake & Palmer

If any of you want it, give me your email address & I'll send it to ya!

Or, you can go to the Downloads section here (Community, then click on "Downloads"). It'll be under "Desktop Enhancements".

1. Startup- Rick Moranis as Dark Helmet in Mel Brooks' Star Wars parody, Spaceballs: "Ludicrous speed, GO!"

2. Mail- David Letterman & the CBS Orchestra: "Let's open up the CBS mailbag. Here we go! (band plays the mail song)"

3. Shutdown- Kathleen Freeman as Sister Mary Stigmata (aka "The Penguin") in The Blues Brothers: "And don't come back until you've redeemed yourselves!"

4. Beep- Howard Dean's scream.
