> You'll note that Apple sells MBP's, which currently are actually sub-par to the Air in several ways, but are better in terms of display and CPU and they charge... way more than the Pixel

$200 more, for which you get a _much_ faster processor (quad-core 2.5GHz i7 vs dual-core 1.8GHz i5), twice the memory, and eight times the storage.
