I got all excited that it might have been a cheaper alternative to a NUC I could use with OpenElec or some other XBMC distro, but it's rather more nerdy and no case...
Yeah, no digital video output without an expansion card and need to find/build a case makes this unattractive for HTPC use.Quote:

Could work well as low powered windows server for home use but worry about the size of those heat sinks - I have a feeling that heat may be a problem
No HDMI is a bit of a moodkiller for me unfortunately - I'm still not sure if I'd have bought one anyway (lord knows I've got enough old PCs laying around as it is!), but a smaller, lower-power HTPC replacement (that has got a bit more oomph than an R-Pi) would have been my first intended use.
6250 Games?
I still cannot believe how small it is. I think it's kind of cool, but the price needs to drop a little before I consider buying it.
