I came to the same conclusion when looking around for a small lightweight, high end quality laptop. Dell XPS and Lenovo X-series, that's about it I think - and they're similarly priced. Ended up buying the MBA Haswell with i7, 8gig, 512gb ssd for +-€1800. No regrets here.

For comparison, my last laptop, an Ubuntu-certified (yay!) Dell set me back $450 (€337). It's a solid average machine, works well, does what it's supposed to do. But I've been feeling like getting myself a better (more "high-end" system) - be it an ultraportable like the MBA, or a desktop replacement like the 17-inch system76/Clevo laptops.
