*Daaang!* Yep, this is how Mac users know their computer is alive every time they start it. It’s reassuring. And so very … annoying! You want to turn it off but there is no button! So is there a way? Yes, two actually.
Method one
This is by far the simplest method. You start MacOS and turn the volume down to zero and reboot. Now your Mac should be nice and quiet. Then you can install MorphOS. The boot sound will not return.
Method two
WArMUp (The World Association of MorphOS Users) have yet again started a drive to gather funds for our various developers. This time there are two different fund raisers: one for developers in general and one for the development of the native word processor Calimero, which will be the successor of Scriba.

DAPlayer (Digital Audio Player) is a MUI based music player by Thomas Rapp who released version 1.12 a while ago. Unlike Jukebox (but like Aminet Radio) it can play Audio CD and a variety of Amiga music files, like MOD:s. As we shall see, this player still needs some work done before being able to compete with other players.
First you need to download the player from here. Extract it to where ever you like:

Being able to radically change the look and feel has always been something I loved about the Amiga systems. No wonder, since Workbench 3.0 didn’t look pretty at all when you compared it to Windows 3.0:

It didn’t take long after writing my latest blog post before some nice reader showed me a better way to create a costum volume adjuster. If you havn’t already read that post and don’t want to, the premise is that there are no keys on the keyboard that adjust volume on MorphOS compatible computers (except Ibooks and Powerbooks). Therefore you need to create them yourself (unless you are OK with changing volume all the time with the mouse).
