A Baby's Cry

Came across a sound file while sorting through some old backups. I knew I still had it somewhere. A recording of my first born son in March 1997 at six months old. I used a IBM 701CS running Windows 3.1, us techies remember such useless stuff. The IBM 701CS was one of the best laptops I have ever owned. I loved the butterfly keyboard, lent it to a friend and never saw it again. Kids grow up so quickly, nice to have a reminder of the baby stage. The original file was in Windows WAV format but I've converted it for direct play here.
