My BIOS had been Alerted!

Comstock:
So a few weeks ago I start learning .net. Turns out that visual studio has code-compete stuff build in, so I’m just typing in random letters (it’s how I code) to see what .net has. Somehow I come up with Console.Beep(). Huh...wonder what that does. So I save the page, load it, and my computer beeps through the internal speaker. Interesting... So the next day I tell Oggie, Derek, and Rob about the discovery. Didn’t get much of a response... Later talking to Derek we decide to put it on seeker and see what happens....sure enough seeker beeps. So Derek makes a little form to control the number of beeps and the pause between them. For the next few days (about....4) whenever rob goes near seeker, seeker beeps a seemingly random number of times. He doesn’t even have to touch seeker...just go near it. strange, rob thinks... soon rob begins to think that there is some kind of hardware error happening on seeker. He checks all the logs...runs some diagnostics...nothing. Huh....

...so this is where I come in. Being the good-natured trickster I am, I decide to get in on the action. Simple beeps were, well, too simple. In C# not only can you control duration but the frequency of the beep. So I go searching on the web to find sheet music for "Mary Had A Little Lamb." and the frequency in Hz of musical notes. After spending a few minutes of transposing musical notes for frequencies, I wrote a small C# app that would play the song on Seeker.
Needless to say Rob was stumped. Seeker had stopped sending simple beeps and started spitting out music! "It has to be some kind of built-in BIOs alert Dell put in there," Lauer says. Tired of stifling a massive laughing outburst, we finally conceded to Rob that we were behind it all along. Rob took it with a grain of salt saying, "Conner, you're a little biatch."

Sorry Robbo, but Seeker Had a Little Lamb.
