My Asus UX305 has a very similar design to the 13" Air but a Core M CPU, no fans, and a great 1080p matte IPS display. The track pad is excellent as well.

It cost me $600.

That all being said, I switched from MacOS to Ubuntu a couple years ago because I was finding the increasingly frequent notifications and general ugliness/usability of newer MacOS versions were becoming very Windows XP-esque.

I might very well be the only person who prefers Unity to MacOS.

Linux runs on UX305 very well. Tried Fedora/Gnome and have been running Slackware/KDE for a while now with no issues with either.
