On their site I found a program called Beep. It makes noises on keyboard/mouse input

It gets annoying after a while, but it is 'cute' enough to impress my girlfriend. And that matters as much as keeping my RedHat system up2date. LOL

Where do you find a girl that could be impressed that easily? No need for fancy restaurants or expensive gifts, just type on your keyboard and she goes mental.... nice!well... (Score:2, Funny)

a) Groove was actually used by anybody and
b) It wasn't such horrible software
then I would say yes. Unfortunately Groove is a solution looking for a problem, and how many people get excited when you hear "designed by the guy that designed Notes."

I've just gotten off the phone with Bruce Perens, talking about that very topic! At the moment, both Bruce and I are too busy to devote much time to our Debian-focused e-newsletter, Elitist Open Source Zealot Virgin. As you may be aware, I am totally consumed with my current Windows port of apt-get, and Bruce has a full time job just keeping the hobos and crack junkies out of his cardboard box underneath the 23rd Street rail bridge.
Sincerely,
Debian Troll.
