    I was under the impression Apple didn't want to remove it but had to due to some restraint made by Intel to the licensees of USB. I'm not too sure about the legal mubo-jumbo, but thats what I remember hearing when they first had it removed.

    Ditto for the function keys of OS 9 - very useful, now gone.
