I've seen a lot of laptops with decent specs selling for $400 or so. I reckon margins on laptops are just very slim to make the switch practical until manufacturing catches up to make high pixel density displays as standard. How many folks would be willing to pay MacBook prices for an HP/Dell/Lenovo/etc laptop in order to get 200ppi pixel density? Tablets still command higher prices despite the no doubt cheaper ARM processors, 1-2GB RAM, 8-32GB NAND and Windows license. Seriously, Intel seems to charge an arm and a leg for their chipsets and Core-series mobile processors.
