What I meant is that you can already run pure Debian on it, exactly like you can do on your PC. No emulation, no chroots, no outdated libs and toolchain. With ability to install every application from repository. Heck, it even works on Neo Freerunner - few years ago I was playing with The GIMP and desktop Firefox on it, with XFCE4 as DE. Fun stuff.

Either you're missing the point, or I don't understand what you mean :P
