That was a cool design. Idk why they axed it.

    Because of how thin the modern screens are nowadays. Iirc, the logo would shine through and make a bright spot on the screen if made on modern macs.

    My iBook G4 just used the screen backlight for the logo. It was kinda dim compared to my 09 Macbook but it still lit up.

    Though I guess ambient light might be an issue as someone mentioned.
