This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
Can't vs won't. I have no doubt that they could do it, but apple didn't get to be one of the most powerful companies in the world by doing the thing that is cheaper for the user.
Oddly, these hard to repair things in apples case are actually cheaper because of it, and probably in many cases makes them more durable due to less failure points.
The problems only come up if/when something does fail.
Having to replace a whole board instead of just the ram isn't cheaper, but that board per unit is cheaper.
