The thing about the MacBook Air (contrary to what you'd expect), is price. I bought mine in Sept 2013. At the moment, it was the cheapest ultrabook with an SSD, Haswell, and 8GiB RAM. And since then, Apple has dropped the price quite a bit, so it must still be quite competitive price-wise.
The second point, is that all hardware (except the webcam) is known to work fine. Asus has a ton of models, and researching which work and which don't take time. Apple has a single model per year, making it trivial to see if it works (or not).
