VNSI works fine on the Pi (albeit its slow to get the menu up with 800 odd channels, I really do need to organize)

To buy a Raspberry Pi over an Ouya at £60 price point is misguided from what I've heard on the internet. The difference in user experience is big.
I only have 3 Pi's just to let you know and thats the only hardware I can comment on. But have seen videos running XBMC on Ouya and its just funny the difference, but both play 1080p fine. plus the Pi has had its day. Ouya will keep improving and then the cubox i will replace the Pi.
If I had £60 I would do as I said. but I'm biased haha
