They came out with Chromebooks that cost $299, and some people see that price and say "what's the catch? Oh this Chrome OS? Must be a cheap budget OS." and they don't buy it. But if they come out with some premium Chromebooks then maybe some people will see that $299 as more of a value instead of looking at it like something must be wrong with it.

Kinda like Hyundai coming out with the Equus at $60-70k to boost the brand perception which could increase sales of the Sonata at $20k.
