- mappu 11y agoI have one, no complaints whatsoever for streaming 1080p hi10p over wifi-n with kodi or MPC-HC. I would agree with the article when it complains that (A) streaming requires good wifi, and (B) an Atom isn't as powerful a desktop workstation as an i3/i5. They seem self-evident to me and as an HTPC i'm quite happy with it. Steam streaming was my specific use case, so now that the Steam Link is out, i might have purchased a cheaper arm device and attempted to port or RE its software.
- hobs 11y agoCool, thanks. I was thinking about buying one for parents but the whole bluetooth/wifi at the same time having problems spooked me, I will probably pick one up!
- trarman 11y agoI also have one, and it's great for office tasks. Nice to be able to fit a functional PC in your pocket. Windows 10 runs decently on it. The Gizmodo review was negative because you couldn't play games on it. It's definitely not a games machine, although I have been able to play World of Warcraft on it.
