Well, nothing Apple makes is manufactured in this country. The last samples that were IIRC were G4 desktops.
In order to be competitive, components would have to come from overseas as well. If this effort gathers steam, it will be in the spotlight of Apple's legal beagles where they have a source of cash from very deep pockets. OTOH, I would love to see Apple create a midrange desktop but I certainly will not hold my breath waiting. Regarding plastic retro, I detest nearly everything plastic!
