    Absolutely! Great machines indeed, I have one.

    However, the sub-$1k market is under served with iPads only.

    I think a 12 inches M1 Macbook can do some serious damage at this price range.

      I guess (in their mind) their laptops are “premium” product and making a cheap one will lead to brand damage.

      Plus, I remember how bad was previous 12 inch macbook, people will probably be very catious about it (if they ever make one)

      The base M1 MacBook Air is regularly (and currently) on sale for $750 at major retailers like Best Buy, Costco, and Amazon. MSRP is still $1000, though.
