The sound of a dial-up modem connecting to the internet.
Full service gas stations that had a bell hose on the ground in front of the pumps to alert the attendant that a customer drove up. (In front of pump on right.) Home movie film projector.
The sound a desktop calculator made when printing.
The sound of a rotary dial phone
The sounds if crickets at night.
Rewinding/fast forwarding a cassette tape and the click of the buttons to stop/play/record.
The sound a VCR made when the tape was ejected.
The sound (and smell) of the mimeograph machine.
The sound of a vinyl record dropping from the stack onto the turntable and the tone arm swinging over and the needle touching down. The sound of the needle hitting the end of the record.
The sound of Tinkerbell “ringing her little bells” telling me to turn the page in the book that went with the record.
Wow, All of these... and you brought back some memories I hadn't thought about in a long time, especially the mimeograph machine and the Little Golden Books on records with the chimes 'or whatever' sound to tell you when to turn the page. I listened to those for hours as a kid.
The old dot matrix printers.
The PacMan game.
