I assume that Bill is talking about the original Apple version of Finder
Sounds.  The FreeWare version that I wrote for the rest of the world is also
quite silent under 7.0 since Apple removed the sound hooks from the Finder
during the 7.0 rewrite.  Now that my copy of Inside Macintosh Volume VI has
finally come in, I'll be trying very hard to reincarnate Finder Sounds under
7.0 using a different method from the now defunct sound hooks.  I, too, wish
Apple would return the sound hooks that were present in Finder 6.1.4 through
6.1.7 (and 6.1.8?).  In the meantime, I've got a couple of ideas to explore. 
I'll post more information on my progress when I've played around with the guts
of 7.0 some more.
