Cool! That startup sound is one of my favorites among Macs.
I don't know what that LTU932 guy is talking about - this Mac and Macs today have completely different startup sounds, and it doesn't matter if it's a Macintosh brand or a Performa brand, a Performa uses the same motherboard as the Mac it's similar to.

Many Power Macintosh'es have the same startup sounds as Performa's because the where the same, some info from MacTracker: The PowerMac 5260 replaced the 5200, adding a faster 100 MHz PPC 603e processor. In September, the 5260/120 was released, with a 120 MHz PPC 603e processor and 16 MB of RAM. The 5260 was also sold as the Performas 5260CD, 5270CD and 5260/120, and was discontinued in March 1997.

@lee4hmz We had one of those. A Performa 5300 IIRC with a PowerPC 603 CPU. It was our very first Mac and since then, I'm dual platform Mac and Windows.

@LTU932 There were PowerPC-based Performas between about 1995-1997. They didn't actually go away until the iMac came out in 1998. As for the sound, it's actually from the Macintosh Processor Upgrade Card (a board that would upgrade a Quadra to a 601 Power Mac); one of the dirty little secrets about the 5260/6260 was that it was a Quadra 630 with a built-in MPUC and a 603 CPU. (Why? Because Apple was out of money and this was cheap...)

is it 100 or 5620 because if it is 100 i would have the performa sound
-
it's pretty slow
nice vid by the way

i have a Power Macintosh 5400/180. i love the higher pitched startup sound more than the ones in my B&W G3, Graphite G4 and my eMac
-
The Power Macintosh 5500 was the best of that form factor.

Sounds more like a Performa than a Powermac. The Powermac has the same startup sound (though somewhat lower pitched) Macs have today. According to the startup sound of your computer, it's a Performa.

If you look very close, it actually does say "Power Macintosh" on the unit.
