<div dir="ltr">Anything with an ARM cpu is going to be a struggle.. best bet is to get something with the new intel atom... like: <a href="http://www.geekbuying.com/item/PIPO-X7-Windows-8-1-Smart-Mini-PC-TV-Box-Media-Player-2G-RAM-32G-ROM-Intel-3736F-1-8GHz-Quad-Core---Silver-339668.html">http://www.geekbuying.com/item/PIPO-X7-Windows-8-1-Smart-Mini-PC-TV-Box-Media-Player-2G-RAM-32G-ROM-Intel-3736F-1-8GHz-Quad-Core---Silver-339668.html</a><div><br></div><div>I haven't tried it yet, but there is no reason it shouldn't work to some degree without too much hassle. VAAPI capable GPU should play almost anything you throw at it. And even though its underpowered, the CPU should be plenty for everything else. 2GB of ram, solidstate drive for the OS, wifi and 10/100 lan... seems almost made for a frontend... all for $115 (was under $90 a month ago). Just wish I coulda talked my wife into letting me spend the money. </div></div><div class="gmail_extra"><br><div class="gmail_quote">On Wed, Jan 28, 2015 at 1:49 PM, Peter Jacobs <span dir="ltr"><<a href="mailto:jacobs.pj@gmail.com" target="_blank">jacobs.pj@gmail.com</a>></span> wrote:<br><blockquote class="gmail_quote" style="margin:0 0 0 .8ex;border-left:1px #ccc solid;padding-left:1ex"><div dir="ltr">Does anyone have any experience or idea if this would be a suitable SBC to use as a front end?
