what a naff invention...why couldn't they just put a square hole instead of
the cross hole?

Then again it was a yank idea

I bought Pozidrives when they first came out -- you could even buy a
special Pozidrive screwdriver, which I also invested in.

Are all screws Pozidrives now? I don't see the brandname in the sheds
when I go.

I think Pro-drive is more common these days - AFAIK the same thing?

There are certainly other different formats around; eg drywall screws
always seem to be Philips, which means continually swapping between
identically sized Philips/Prodrive bits or screwdrivers.
