Apple use standard mechanisms - instead of expensive custom built parts for
the various drives.  That's a good move.  It would have been nice if they
could have figured out a good way of hiding it *and* giving access to the
headphone socket.  But that's another niggle.

To be honest the apearance isn't one of the major selling points to me -
but the case is good in other respects, too.
