That's an interesting way to look at it.  I think that the more
accurate characterization is that Apple doesn't ship any tape drives,
so there's no point in shipping unused code.  You can say what you
want about Apple not considering the possibility of third-party
hardware :)

Anyway, I'm still on 10.4, so I can't actually answer the question
with certainty.
