The Neo won't sell dozens of models they will take the low end laptop market by storm. I think your comment will age very poorly

This exactly. No other laptop comes close on price for the hardware you get. Yeah you may get more ram in a PC but promise you it won’t feel as fast when you’re using it day to day or have as good of a display or battery life.
In same price range you can get a PC that not only has more ram but also has better multicore performance, better disk speed and better port selection. Yes neo wins on build quality, trackpad, speaker, display and battery life but the PC would also allow you to install any linux distro.
So the Neo wins on things people care about
The Neo is already considered a huge success and is the reason for the scarcity.
