Don't know why they removed something that has been part f the apple computer  
world for many many years,

It use to indicate that all services were functioning correctly.
 Oh and that wally was charging but whether that still fits I can't be sure.

Yes, I'm not surprised. I'm just not recalling exactly when it was removed from 
what models, and whether or not it's now too late to pick up any that still 
have it unused.

As to why, I suspect it's as simple as most sighted computer users, perhaps I 
should say many sighted users have a strong aversion to automated sounds from 
their machines, even at the boot stage.

However, what is not understandable is why this can't be a configurable option 
those of us who rely on it might choose to invoke in ou machine profiles.

I think someone filed a bug, but I also think it was a bug too restricted by 
machine model. I could be wrong.
