Just fixed a 2021 MacBook Pro that had a totally different board layout than the 2020 model
I had the same liquid spill repair come in for both years, and the 2021 board moved the power management ICs to the opposite side under a new shield. It took me an extra hour in Phoenix last Thursday because I wasn't ready for that. Has anyone else run into this with the newer Apple stuff?

An extra hour" sounds rough but... is that really a big deal for a new model year? They change stuff all the time.

That extra hour adds up fast over a whole production run.
