Windows Vista Start-up Sound Sucks, Is Holy

 “A spiritual side of the branding experience. A short, brief, positive confirmation that your machine is now conscious and ready to react”; 2) “The startup sound is designed to help you calibrate or fix something that got out of wack when you startup your machine.”</p></blockquote>
<p>Ed Bott, in return, fires back that start-up sounds that are as loud and obtrusive as a fart in temple - like the Windows XP sound and, potentially, the Vista sound - should be modifiable by the user and should be completely removable, if said user so wishes. However, this shizz is spiritual, baby, and you don’t mess with spiritual.</p>

Just as with XP, there are ways to remove that rotten sound when the computer starts up.
I am sure there will be a way to do the same with vista, even if M$ doesn’t allow it to be removed, repeat. There will still be a way to do so.
But I do agree that the startup sound should be modifiable by the user and completely removable.
