I replaced the AC barrel connector on an x220, which required removing every single part from the chassis. It took me probably four hours all told, and a few gray hairs (it was my wife's laptop, and yes I had a backup of everything on it, but didn't want to need to replace it). An Apple laptop would have been shipped off who knows where for three weeks, if fixing that part were even possible.
