1000 dollars is a fair price for the 15 MBA. I think it was overpriced at the start.

I would rather buy through apple and feel better knowing the product works and the price is fair.
AND we usually get the  product the next day from , not some creep.

Is there anyone else tired of every Mac or Apple News and review website
insists on buying  products through amazon?
I stopped visiting these biased sites for good.

thems will execute me soon for this post!

Well I've decided not to pursue this even if it's a great deal. My intel-based computers are satisfactory for my needs and I'm not seeking to get addicted to new games with high specs. While the new M series processors are on a whole new level compared to intel, dumping $1500 USD on a new laptop just doesn't make sense for me now.

Maybe in two or three years (or whenever intel becomes truly obsolete) I'll look back and be grateful. By then this would sell for less than 1k or the specs of the new version will be that much better.
