As with any manufacturer who does not make their own boards, they are
made the customers specifications.
I have bought name brand stuff only to discover another name on the board.
Dell does not make boards but only assembles parts made to their specs.
It is like Cell phones. The phone you buy in America may have a
generic counterpart somewhere in the world, and you will different
thins on it, because they are set to the specifications of the buyer.
I will assume that there are certain specifications that Apple does
have with their manufacturer for quality and fit and finish.
If you remember the name Curtis Mathis (I saw it recently on a flat
screen TV) they used to proclaim themselves the upper tier of TV
sellers. They did not make a thing. They only assembled TV's out of
other manufacturers components and stuck their name on it.

I think it is the general overall parts quality that separates the
Macintosh from a lot of other computer makers. I'll presume that the
Macintosh laptop motherboards are made to certain specifications as
stipulated by Apple. I have little experience with Mac portables as
I have almost exclusively been a Mac desktop user. My only portable,
and the only one i've ever had, is a 17" aluminum Powerbook that I do
not use very often.
All my Macs are Motorola units.
