I have to update my post because I see a lot of 1 star reviews.
This is a $130 computer. It turns an HDMI-equipped screen into a kiosk-type computer. Due to the timing, Intel couldn't release this device with Windows 8.1 or earlier. It will run Windows 10 w/ Skype with no issues. I've played Asphault 8 Airborne at 1080p. We mostly use it as a conference room computer, with no more than one or two applications running simultaneously.
If you're into tinkering, you can make this a great Kodi-enabled system.
If you think you're going to be using this as a desktop or laptop replacement, move on. It has the same processor as some Windows tablets and it really isn't designed to handle heavy duty, multi-tabbed browsing sessions.
Amazing technology in a small package. Not a top of the line gamer, but totally capable of 1080p streaming right out of the box. Windows 10 works smoothly and everything took less than 15 minutes from opening the box to surfing YouTube.
Limited IO makes this a great HTPC, not a power-user tinker machine. Don't expect to play Crysis, but Asphalt 8: Airborne performs just fine.
I should mention that I'm using this system as a conference room kiosk computer for presentations, skype video calls, etc. I'm using the Logitech wireless keyboard/trackpad with zero issues out of the box. Keep in mind, this system uses an Intel Atom processor. These are typically found in tablets, and many embedded devices - so multitasking isn't a strong suit. Still with the four physical cores, it is a very impressive unit.
Make sure you identify the correct PC for your needs before purchasing.
Some other hints - check out the SRWare Iron browser. Everything you love about Chrome, none of the garbage you hate. The atom processor and Edge don't get along all that well just yet.
