That's my guess too. Fuck it, I'll just go get a monitor from the garage. I'm going to want to test Android on it anyway. It runs Ubuntu very nicely I will say! I was also very surprised in how quickly it arrived. I'd say if I can get as familiar with this as I did with the Pi that I'll be getting these from now on.

You should definitely try Xbmc on it and see if it's any more stable Han on a Pi (particularly with regard to networking). And if it is, you should buy me one for Xmas.

I will as soon as you play the game I told you about!
There is an option to install XBMC right from a script similar to raspi-config. I'd say it runs it very well. I can't really test it other than to install it and boot it because I've moved everything over to Plex.

Doesn't look favourable from their demo video (~18fps@1080p):

I'd ignore that. That's just for the menu interface. Obviously not great but doesn't matter if the video is accelerated.

Though the video stats show the FPS is lower than the framerate for the video, that's not a good sign.

I must be strange, it seemed fine to me at that frame rate. It's not the fastest thing I've ever used but certainly much faster than the Pi. I opened Kodi, wtf is that name anyway? and it locked up the whole machine. Kodi is still beta right? That could be some of it. I've moved to Plex, at least it's not a stupid kids toy name or a fucking dog or something.
Anyway, for the price of a Pi it's decent, but not earth shattering.
