The premise is that they all suck because of things like universal search that isn't universal. That's a pretty minor complaint. A laptop connected to your tv works pretty well, but its a far more fiddly experience than any of the streaming boxes. If it works for you that's great, but if you were to try and sell it as a competitor to apple tv or Roku you'd be laughed out of town for the terrible UX.
