there are some comments on lack of power from the cpu, in my opinion youve missed the point of this machine.
for me the power CONSUMPTION for a 24/7 machine is vital, now max output of 25W for me is seriously fantastic. An A6 APU at max load is about 80-90W (correct me if im wrong).
remember 4W when idle.. fantastic piece of kit
now its undeniable that this machine performs the role of HTPC. and im not stating it will do much else, but it WILL do 1080p easily, and general websurfing etc.
the fact that its silent and inexpensive is an added bonus.
for those who value, a simple and silent HTPC that is cost effective to purchase and run, this machine will perform your needs.
If your after more grunt (e.g. gaming etc) its not for you
