I compared this to a Macbook Pro 13", which is the closest comparable hardware. It came out better in features and cost ($300 cheaper then a Macbook Pro with similar SSD and memory), and was thinner and lighter.

I wanted the Macbook Pro, but I didn't see the $300 difference in the Pro.

One difference: you can't legally develop for iOS with non-Apple hardware. Which is IMHO an extortion, but there you have it.

You should see what you have to do to develop for Nintendo hardware...

The Macbook has a better trackpad and the (legal) ability to run every major desktop OS.

That's worth $300 to me...
