Nope, and I'll wager they never will again. Pro audio folks don't use them, so it's a waste of money for Apple to put them in for such a significant user base. Pro audio folks have to buy specialized hardware, to suit their needs. Also, with the availability of USB and Firewire audio capture devices (aside from the PCI slotted types the pros use), Apple assumes that if you want audio in -- even at a consumer level -- you're better off paying for it yourself, getting what you exactly need (i.e.: RCA ins, rather than a mini-jack). I'm not commenting on whether this was a good move or not, just delivering the facts. GG -- Mac Canada is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/> and...
