Why do the North American //e's have the auxillary slot next to the power supply whilst the European & Australian models don't ?
Probably the people who designed the PAL board (which came later than the NTSC board I'd assume) thought it less confusing to the user; since software-wise the AUX slot is treated like slot #3. Maybe they even anticipated cards that plug into both slots.
