You know, MS isn't the only one that does this... the Linux SCSI implementation would assign /dev/sda to the lowest SCSI ID on the chain, so if you went back and added a new drive who's ID was lower than the drives you've already had, all of your drive letters would move up by one, 'causing no end of trouble. 'Course, this is not a problem if you use devfs, but not very many people do yet. M, just keeping us all honest. :)
