We have a Versatec 8836-II Laser Plotter which has a number of little motors in it (I'm not sure what they're for; separate rollers or something?), and when it's plotting, it comes out with the most amazing little whispers, like Hewey, Dewey and Lewey in Silent Running. Very musical (well I think so).
