I don't know why they claim these use 45W of power. This must be maximum usage?

The box is surprisingly snappy and responsive for only 2GB of ram. I've run KODI, Official Win8 Plex App ( and Plex Home Theater ). I've tried a plethora of skins, and can't find any performance issues. No issues with 24p switching or HDMI output. Very happy so far.
In fact, despite being a long time linux and openelec stalwart, I might actually keep windows on this box. The benefit of having an official Netflix App and others at quick disposal is welcome.
There is some bloatware included on the box, but nothing that 5 minutes of uninstalling can't remedy. Moreover, included in the box is a $25 windows store voucher, and a 2 year 200GB cloud storage plan. IMHO, well worth the $20 premium over HP's chromebox.
Happy to fulfill any testing requests or provide any info on the box.

Only thing I would ask, but don't have serious doubts about, are for streaming from USB attached hard drives and over wired ethernet which is where the bulk of my media is, and then of course if it can handle the hd audio, DTS, DD, DTS-HD etc.
Was on the fence if the Stream would be good enough or if I should look at the mini one step up. slower and bigger hard drive but faster cpu, do't know iof it's worth double the price though. I like that it comes with the SSD.
