- The computer under my desk is a HP Snake and it has quite a few
- flashing lights. The best is the one marked with a heart symbol: it
- "beats" two quick pulses every second to reassure you that the machine
- is still working. The pulse rate doesn't seem to get any faster when
- the machine is excited, though, a bit like Hannibal Lecter.
