For best results you'll need QuickTime on your computer. The
QuickTime plug-in, a small, add on program for your browser,
has been bundled into at least the last three versions of Netscape
and Explorer, so you should have it. If you have Windows you'll
need the larger QuickTime Player program itself. Get it free
at http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/.
Don't have or want QuickTime? Go here for step by step sounds
in a wav file, something most PCs can handle easily -- it's at
Michael Spalter's "Strowger Telecomms Page", the place
for all things step by step: http://www.seg.co.uk/telecomm/sounds.htm
In addition, many, many great telephone sounds, from the early
days of hacking, are at the following URL. Want to know what
it sounded like to dial through a panel, No. 1 crossbar, or a
Number 5 crossbar switch? You'll find out. Mac users may have
problems but keep at it. One hint -- turn off virtual memory.
PC folks shouldn't have a problem: http://www.wideweb.com/phonetrips
