Will it harm my Wii to unplug the power cord during the Wii's power-down sequence?

The power down sequence takes at most 2 seconds. You must be ridiculously fast.

Why don't you just leave it plugged in? If you can't then just wait less than 5 seconds....

Why are you taking the power cord out of the system that often?

I shut it down because I don't want it to get a power surge by leaving it in stand-by.

Another question: when you shut the Wii off something powers down, you can hear it. I'm not sure what it is. Anyone know?
