I forget where I read this (maybe PG's blog?) but I read some early 2000s startup had some kind of mechanical device that responded to website visitors, so everyone in the office could hear the traffic in realtime.
I also heard stories of professors who would know a program had a bug based on the sounds the computer was making. (Back when they were slightly slower!)
