- Huh? No. I don't think so. It's not as if they just didn't
- connect one wire. You need to demux the signals, and send them to the
- appropriate channel. Granted, it's trivial. Granted, they couldn
- have put the hardware on the board. It would most certainly NOT have
- "cost just as much to install the same thing, in stereo."
-
- I also seem to remember some story a while ago about the hardware
- dudes using that realestate for something else, although precisely
- what it was eludes me at the moment. It could simply be yet another
- product of my imagination, but who's to say...
