Rumors are circulating that physical hardware is the issue and thats why they cant bring them back. They either bricked their servers so they wont boot or something catastrophic happened that damaged the hardware

So, they were forced to buy new hardware after their latest update but, like most of the rest of us, they refused? /s

We can only wish for such good news. However, I'm surprise noone has done that yet.
