OSX 10.4.9 media eject delay 'feature'

Got a Mac? Updated to OS X 10.4.9 recently? Been having trouble ejecting CDs/DVDs?

Apple support reports:

"To prevent accidentally ejecting media, Mac OS X 10.4.9 adds a slight delay to the Media Eject key before it takes effect. To eject a disc, hold the Media Eject key. The disc will eject normally and the eject symbol will appear."

Yep, I wish they'd told me as well.
