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.

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.

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)
