HP stopped selling these a few years ago, but I bought an HP Stream Mini[0] to be my replacement HTPC after my original Raspberry Pi Model B was starting to chug on 720p videos: I was sold on it after reading an enthusiastic Ars Technica review.[1] I quite liked the thing. Its specs were a little anemic out of the box, but despite being the size of a tupperware container, I was able to swap out the flash HD for a proper SSD, upgrade the RAM, and even swap out the WiFi card for a better model. It's still holding up as my media center five years later.
