Ken, fantastic investigative journalism of a geeky kind! Apple has gone the extra mile to build a better product and has profited handsomely as a result and for good reason. Good design still triumphs over manufacturing prowess and I'm glad the US has near monopoly over electronic and computer design.
Another area I always wonder about is the need for wall warts vs. building in the adapter into the device itself. The Apple TV, Mac Mini etc., don't have wall wart power supplies but you plug them into 110/220v supply directly. However most other comparable devices (Intel NUC, for example) have wall wart supplies. Why is this?
