That's not unusual any more.....computer mfg's have parts make all over the world and they also may have as many as 4-5 companies working in the same fab developing a process. For the most part they actually keep their product secrets from each other.. The International Space Station has major portions built in other countries. I'm working on my new HP laptop right now which was built in China... The world is a much smaller place now, something the RW hasn't come to grips with yet

Flying in parts for a computer is one thing; shipping in wings and fuselages from Italy and Brazil to Seattle is quite another.
