    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.

      Yep!
      Some of my old Macs had LCD fading right in the middle where the logo was. Was Hella annoying

      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.
