Hi everyone.
I am in the market for a new Kodi box. Currently I have two zotac boxes (one running xbmcbuntu and one running windows 7)
I am getting tired of the windows one randomly rebooting after updates or for no real good reason. the ubuntu one is fine, though updates are a bit of a pain as i have to log out and pull out a keyboard and refresh my memory on command line.
the idea of an android box is intriguing...this would be a gift for my inlaws and i think they would use the other apps like youtube and such - even if they get themselves a netflix account they could use that.
are these things pretty straightforward? they are far from technical, and will just give up before they complain or ask for help.
I would be attaching a usb storage device and using an ethernet port, the Minix X8-H looks promising
Thoughts? Advice?
