Found Footage: Apple sounds "song"
Some might argue that the Apple sound effects found in the "Sound" preference pane can get a little annoying over time. However, a YouTube user has turned those "annoying" tweets and chirps into somewhat of a song.
The song project, created in GarageBand, is available for download from the creator's website. While there, you can also download an m4a audio file of the song -- who knows, this might make a really good iPhone ringtone!
Of course, this guy isn't the first to pull such a stunt, as a Windows version has existed for a while. Now, if you want that on your iPhone, we've got to talk.

Pretty nice, but I still like Transformer di Roboter's cover of Stranger in Moscow, which incorporates the Mac startup chime very well:

There are more impressive Windows sounds videos on Youtube. Such as: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dsU3B0W3TMs
And does anyone else think it almost had an Imperial March thing going on toward the end? LOL

Does this remind anyone else of Mario Paint?

The Windows one sounds better, but only because there are way more things to go wrong on it.

I'm more partial to "FunkyMac.wav" to the melody of "Blue Monday" -- http://www.jgiesen.de/javascript/HTML/HTML9/sounds/FunkyMac.wav

Holy cow, i haven't heard that in years! It was from a contest MacAddict ran back in the day. There were some great sounds that came out of that, but this was one of the best.

My Mac still Quacks at me!
I managed to install the original sounds I found once online. A mac is not a mac if it doesn´t quack. (!)

I suppose the music industry has been competitive since the days of court musicians and kapelmeisters but I still don't see the point of saying one amateur musician's work is better or worse than any other's. Just enjoy what the creator offers and move on with your life. You DO have one, don't you?

Love the wilhelm scream at the end, although I think a Howard Dean scream would have worked way better!
