hear the drive, but I kept it for the same reason I have the clock set
to show seconds. When my system froze or failed to respond, I'd check
the clock and the drive icon to see if I had a crash on the way or I
just needed to wait a few seconds. It was a small thing, but I just
got used to having it. . .>>
Another thing I use for the same purpose is the SuperApple control panel.
This changes the apple for your Apple Menu in the menubar to a choice of
various animated icons(e.g., spinning globe, steaming coffee cup, etc.). So
you can tell if an operation you're performing is still working when the
animation is still paused. It's fun, too, though unfortunately the icon
choices are all in black-and-white.
