I don't know about your parents, but mine don't browse Amazon looking for gifts for my kids. They go to BestBuy or Walmart and pick something up.

Additionally in an office full of software developrs there are multiple people who are looking to pick one up or have already done so ( Myself included ). I think the "not very tech savvy" crowd would be buying the name brand laptops with Intel processors and Windows since that's what we have trained them to do for 20 years.
