The manufacturing seems to be quite problematic. On the one hand they have very specific requirements, and for the past three or four years have had a significant number of small issues that have held up production. On the other hand, both the massive amount of custom electronics and the aluminum unibody are uncommon, so few manufacturers will have experience with them. The other thing is.... very few of them crash. So there isn't a big incentive to invest the massive amount of time and money it would take to replicate and certify all the manufacturing with 3rd parties. It makes more sense to just let a few customers get fucked over.
