The $599 XPS13 is a better value, and it can run Linux unlike the Neo.

Until they raise the price on that too. Dell has explicitly stated it's a "limited time" price, so don't be shocked if it becomes the $699 XPS13 almost immediately.

Maybe, but Apple has already raised it, and you can still buy the XPS (a more capable device that supports Linux) for $599.

Or you could buy a MacBook Neo on various retailers who still have it for $599. Heck, it’s on sale for $589 on Amazon right now.

I don’t think the market shopping for $600 laptops is the same market that wants something that runs Linux.
