This is a strange reveral of the gnu/linux debate. The linux kernel is not the important component, the windowing system is. I dont want to run X applications on a tablet, I have tried that before with the n700. I want a fully finger friendly user interface, the one that comes with android works pretty well. I can understand the appeal of a community owned FOSS user interface, but why attach the linux tag as a selling point.

Because some people would like to be able to attach a keyboard and use it as a makeshift netbook now and again. And because there's a lot of work ongoing to make X apps "finger friendly". E.g. Ubuntu 13.04 has making Ubuntu work better on tablets as a major goal. And these devices are not just tablets. The MiniPC (which is just a MK802 or MK803) has HDMI out and full HD.
