 It is a virtual fs,  what means that the information is generated
dynamically, and there is not a great thechnical problem.  And it is easy
to do complex things from bash scripts, what would be great for
administrators.

 That is why recompiling the kernel is good, and modules are great. :-)

 The most of the people does not want PCMCIA, neither the bizarre Memory

neither the most of the people that I know. But this was not a problem, at
