>I seriously doubt that Apple would release an ARM-based laptop that would "destroy" the massive low/mid-tier Chromebook and Windows laptop market for three reasons: >a) They'd have to release it at the same price point or less than those products (that's not The Apple Way) When I covered IT hardware companies on Wall Street, I heard Apple's CFO say that his company could release a $799 computer "but we don't want to". Around the same time, at an investor dinner with the Dell CFO, an attendee asked how sales were of a $299 computer on Dell's print catalog cover. The CFO replied, "the problem with advertising a $299 computer is that people want to buy it".
