The 1/8" mini-TRS plugin is woefully inadequate for getting decent fidelity
out of a recording.  Now it might be interesting for the noise and other
artefacts it brings to the sound of a recording, but not as a transparent
recording device.  There's no reason to make me pay for that audio in and I
think a lot of folks felt the same way.  Most of the "laptop techno"
producers I've seen perform use either a totally software-based sound source
or they use some sort of RME Hammerfall-type device (USB/PCMCIA).  I applaud
Apple on this decision.
