It's been really annoying me to no end that I could find no way to disable the system beep in VMWare. Especially because Emacs (my beloved editor) happily (or angrily) rings the system bell when you make certain mistakes. However, I found this thread that talks of a hidden option that you can put in your .vmx file to disable the beep. Simply set mks.noBeep = "true". Wonderful!

Have you tried typing in "define: <term>" at the Google search prompt? It's a beautiful thing. Google will provide as many definitions for your term as it can find. It's especially good for geeky computer terms. Check out my search for "NFS".
