DON'T PANIC

Just a running production change to make things easier to manufacture; there's
nothing added or deleted from Rev 4.3.  I think the 4.4 boards can use several
different types of capacitors for Expansion slot and IC bypass, whereas the
4.3 board required specific types.  When you buy these things millions at a
time, it's nice to be able to use what ever package design for a component is 
cheaper that day.
