I think they're overpriced compared to most laptops. Being ARM doesn't inherently make it more valuable. The newest cheap model is the first that I feel has been relatively fairly priced, but it still comes with less RAM than it should. "Grossly" may not be the best word, but I think they are overpriced based entirely on name recognition.
Like I said, I think their fine computers, just more expensive than they should be.
