This non-user servicable parts thing makes me think of the following. I am a vender for audio parts. To the extent that I can recognize companies I use, others I've used and those that are of their types. Often times I will ask a manu of high end gear: "could you ugrade the cable or the RCA jacks to that company's model xxx?" They say it is non-standard and usually won't do i. When I can I do. I 've had manu's change out my upgrades to make it "factory spec" whn I've sent it in for repairs I couldn't do. I've even had to go as far as removing and redoing an entire mod package for a customer so that my work wouldn't be tossed by a highly priced manu when sending it back for repair.
