What's the most boring part of Macintosh ?? Waiting for all of those stupid INITs to load ! So what we need is a theme song !! Put a file called "StartupSound" in the System Folder, the INIT in the Extensions folder and restart. (the sound file must have a 'SND ' resource in the data fork)
This hack was written in MDS Assembler ( it works great - MDS just doesn't understand HFS quite yet) It uses 3 VBL tasks to load SND data to the Sound Driver while other INITs are running...
The Sound DRVR is required - BUT the Sound DRVR is not present on the PowerPC, so this hack requires a 68k Macintosh...
Source code provided, for the eternally curious....
