You might look at a Dell Inspiron. There is the XPS 13 Developer Edition, which is delivered with Ubuntu, but is just a bit over your price range.

In addition, there is the Inspiron 7000-series 2-in-1 (where the keyboard folds around back to make the unit more like a tablet), available in 13", 15" and 17" screen sizes. You can get the 13" with touchscreen, a Core i7, 16 GB RAM and a 512 GB SSD for $1,100. A year ago I bought myself the 11" version, they were still making them with enough power to be useful then. If Ubuntu and its relatives work for you, they are well-supported on Dells.
