      That’s still pretty vague. The 13 starts at $750, if the 12 doesn’t cost less than that, what’s the point?

        They said it was a competitor to the cheap student notebook, so the price better show that.

          Is the 12 going to be exclusively sold as I pre-built? I was thinking there would be a DIY option of the 12 as well?

            I’d assume so.

            The 13" is only less than $1000 when used or when you don’t get memory, storage, expansion cards, etc. I’d assume the <$1000 price point for the 12" is including all that.

              AFAIK they’re keeping the older models at a permanent discount. So you’ll be able to buy a fully built 13 with 4 USB ports and Windows installed for $900
