There is a PS/2 Model 80 here that has a distinct squeal from somewhere
in the main box.  I would call it more a chirping sound.  The funniest
thing about it is that when a graphics program that does bezier curves
is running the frequency range of the chirping varies proportionally
to the acuteness of the beziers being formed.  Figure that one out!
