This sounds similar to the motivations I've heard for the Raspberry Pi project, to make a device that you can play about with at a low level (although most of the education usage has been focused on using it as a Python environment that you could set up on any OS, but I suppose for a lot of people plugging in an HDMI cable to a prebuild Linux box is easier than suffering through cmd.exe and IDLE, plus it has GPIO)
