I agree with your point, but you are looking @ things from a PC/Linux/x86 standpoint. Macs don't need to boot from floppies, ever. So there true use is dwindling.
Maybe apple can add CDRW capability later, but for the majority of iMac owners, the largest file they'd transfer would be 100k (word documents.. nugh said), which can be emailed, ftped, or sent via a variety of messaging mediums within a matter of seconds on a measly 56k.
