From the website for the pi-TopCEED:

>$134.99 with Raspberry pi...$99.99 without Raspberry pi.<<

I'm referring to the laptop version. I guess the battery, hinges, keyboard, and trackpad fetch a premium. I don't think the CEED is as appealing as the laptop version (which is probably why it is priced competitively).

Yes, the CEED would still make a great educational tool, but if the child doesn't use it; it's worthless. My niece and nephew aren't that young any more, so I have a feeling that the only way they would use it, is if the pi-tops were in laptop-form.
