I can totally agree on this.
About a month ago, I was buying a new ultrabook, and MacBook Air was an obvious choice. Obvious, until I saw it's price. It's way too overpriced for what it offers. The battery life is fine, but other than that, nothing. I mean, c'mon, 4gb of RAM and an Intel Core i5 processor is sufficient for a modern day laptop? MacBook Pro is not better in any aspect, as well.
Finally, I ended up with a Dell Latitude (E7250) with 16gb of RAM and a lot better i7 processor, for about twice less money. And guess what, the battery also holds roughly 9 hours, but RAM processing power difference is huge, especially in my line of work. I could even install a Hackintosh on my machine and get all of the OSX goodness for half the price.
