Tragically, I am unable to hear any sounds on any computers in my office.

I was working as a subcontractor at MS right when they invented those little wav
sound files, and the way to associate them with actions.  I was in this room in
what we called "the dungeon" of building 11, which was a giant pile of cubicles.

There were dozens of computers shouting "yabba-dabba-doo!" and "uh-oh!" and
"Bogus!" all day long, week after week.

I physically cut the connection to any speaker of any computer I use ever since
then.
