***FRU's!*** Apple has been beating the drum for quite a few years reducing the number of FRU's per a given series. They also look at it for their tech skills level. At one point they had folks with the needed chops to even pickup a soldering iron to tag a joint if that is all it took. Now Apple is a replace it and throw it attitude! While we don't see it the recovery aspect is not their only putting the part into grinder! So a missing resistor on a board is chuck it not fix it! Here a dead battery is chuck the whole upper case and even the keyboard is not replaceable so its again chuck it out too!
