Its not that microsoft is trying to be like apple. They are just trying to create a good product (check) and recover the money they invested (in progress). The price point is also expecting a large volume of units to be sold, it would be higher if MS thought it would undersell.
People are silly if they think MS or apple are making straight profit. grain of salt guys, grain of salt.
Noted: apple is just adapting and improving on a proven platform, so one can assume there is less R&D overhead compared to MS. Since MS had to create it from scratch.
Still good to see that they should be able to make the project profitable, it is their first attempt at hardware design in years.
