That Little Eject Icon

A while back, I had a nice little "eject" icon on my Mac OS X menu bar that let me eject CDs and DVDs without having to hit the keyboard button (particularly nice, since Jordan tore off that particular key, leaving a stub that still worked, but which is a bit awkward).

During one of my various upgrades, it went away. Well, after reading Macworld, I figured out how to get it back. You have to open the finder, drill down through the various folders, and then double click on the "Eject.menu" file. That puts the icon back in your menu bar.

The exact path is: [your hard drive] System: Library: Core Services: Menu Extras: Eject.menu
