> In my mind it is stupid (and poor marketing) that the linux community is not crushing Apple with cheap, fast laptops.

That is not how the economics of laptops work.

Most people don't want a Linux laptop. Call it inertia, but it is a fact that most people buy Windows laptops.

Most of the premium market consumers prefer Apple.

And most people who prefer Linux aren't paying a premium right now.

So you have three sets that do not overlap, and there is nothing the community can do about that in the short to medium term, anyway.
