It is my understanding this is how Apple does their development. Everything is home grown and not a hodge podge of dependencies from outside the company.
I do like Mac products but just can't get passed their walled garden. However, to have the quality they do I guess it kind of makes sense to have the garden.
I personally like the idea of few-to-none outside dependencies, solid testing and solid, up-to-date documentation. I need to work on being more disciplined and motivated to do it.

I think that most corporations don't like to cede control. I have been told that one of the big reasons for Boeing's troubles, is that they have pushed a lot of important functionality to external contractors.
