There are still companies that do that; the ones I'm aware off are mostly from Germany and Japan. Like assembly line robots, but also Panasonic (and maybe Fujitsu; haven't tried them for a while, but I used to be a big fan of their 2-in-1's P1510 rang) laptops (especially the Japan-only ones). They would not sell anywhere else because they are crazy priced, but they are virtually indestructible and go on forever.
