I dunno.

Like, yeah, I get it. There‘s quite a few sounds that trigger emotional reactions in me.

The whirring and buzzing of the PSU. The Award BIOS beep. The seeking sound of an empty 3.5 inch disk drive. The slight CRT zang between different resolutions - and the electrical drizzle of degaussing such a beast.

But to this day nothing amazes me more than opening a MacBook and it being dead silent.

Maybe it‘s because I have young kids, maybe it‘s because I used to be an audio recording hobbyist (and isolating computer sound was always a pain).

But there‘s nothing I enjoy more than the powerful sound of silence.
