The other day as the image of the clock danced around on my Mac Plus,
I heard a beep.  Oh, I thought, I must have lost contact with a 
MacServe Server.  But when I moved the mouse I did not see the standard
alert box associated with the temporary MacServe error.  What I did 
see was really strange...I saw the apple in the menu bar blinking from
regular to inverse with a black box around it.  It blinks once a second.
What does this mean????  Is it from the System or is it from some software 
program playing a joke on my Mac?  The Apple menu works find when you click
on it.  I am running Finder 6.0 and System 4.2.

By the way, someone else in our lab said that the apple in the menubar of
her Mac SE has always blinked from the first day she got it about 6 months
ago.  She thought it was suppose to.

I can't stand the stupid blinking.  How do I STOP it ???
