Reportedly, this command may not work on all models of Mac. However, I am heartened by the fact that it worked on my current Mini, which was factory-configured to be chime-less, 

The chime has real practical utility: to start up in Safe Mode with a wireless keyboard, you cannot hold down the shift key BEFORE the chime, or it will be disregarded; and, of course, you cannot hold it down too late. And since there are no more optical drives to go chunk-chunk, timing this without a chime can be quite a b*h.
