Given there are lots of Laptops around for <£350 which have better hardware
spec it isn't at all impressive from a hardware perspective.

The fact it runs Linux is good, and it gets the name out there, but I wonder
if these machines (which it seems are built for quite specific use cases) will
give the wrong impression. Is there a chance that people will think that Linux
is synonymous with low-spec hardware, that people will think it's limited to
that role?

Further, if your use case is Facebook, buy a tablet. If you want to get some
work done, buy a mid-range laptop or desktop.
