One of the problems is that truly 'fixing' a Macbook is impossible. If your Logic Board has water damage, 90% of the time you'll need to replace the entire board instead of the $0.50 component that's failing. That's why Louis (and other repair shops) have used donor boards to attempt actual repairs instead of just replacing your whole mainboard.
I reckon that's what Apple is going to do here, too. Of course they don't have the gall to sell consumers their Texas Instruments ICs for board repairs, it's likely they're only going to sell piecemeal topcases, Logic Boards, and if we're lucky, batteries too.
