Prebuilt (minus OS) vs non prebuilt
Is the 12 going to be exclusively sold as I pre-built? I was thinking there would be a DIY option of the 12 as well?
I'd assume so.
The 13" is only less than $1000 when used or when you don't get memory, storage, expansion cards, etc. I'd assume the <$1000 price point for the 12" is including all that.
AFAIK they're keeping the older models at a permanent discount. So you'll be able to buy a fully built 13 with 4 USB ports and Windows installed for $900
That's a waste of $90 (for a w*nd*ws license)
