$500 with a keyboard would be acceptable for a device like that. But the retail price is given as $700 plus $100 for the keyboard. That's pretty steep.

I'm all for paying a little more for a machine that puts Linux and FOSS first. Dell and Lenovo are cheaper, sure, but you're supporting the Windows/closed source ecosystem.

The same thing is true about the transformer laptop that was posted on here a bunch but people seemingly loved that despite the steep price for what it was.
