It tells me what kind information is probably in the retweet. I can scan my stream for tweets that are likely to relate to what I'm focusing on at the moment based on who passed it along. I'll be using the old style RT. I want my followers to know what came from me, for the same reason I want to know who RT'd the stuff in my stream. I get value from seeing the retweeter’s avatar.

I do not tweet that frequently and the first time I retweeted was using the RT button. I thought "Hey, isn't there a box where I can add some text of my own?" I agree. The retweet button sucks.
