Good HTPC but not Great, 2010-08-24
There are four problems with it:
1. The Atom CPU is under-powered. It makes web browsing a little tedious.
2. HDMI audio output is not reliably detected by my Sony surround sound system.
3. It will not wake up from sleep when I press the power button on my Media Center remote.
4. Power light blinks brightly in sleep mode.
Issue 1 is annoying but you will probably learn to live with it.
I got around issue 2 by using the optical audio output with my receiver.
I solved the resume from sleep issue by using my Bluetooth keyboard.
I have to turn off the computer before I go to sleep, otherwise the blinking light will probably keep me up at night. Yes, I know I can put a tape over the light, but I choose not to do so.
I am happy with my purchase. However, I am probably going to give the machine to my buddy and build one from scratch myself.
Is it 64 bit?, 2010-07-21
Yes the N330 processor chip is 64 bit, however the Windows 7 premium version that comes installed is 32 bit. I purchased it to run 64 bit software, I will have to upgrade the OS. This is the reason for only 3 stars.
A very nice keyboard and mouse comes with the unit that I purchased at Amazon.
Reading other reviews, someone stated that the computer could be placed on its side even though the instructions say not to. My observation is that the unit cools when heated air exits the top vent bringing cooler air in the bottom vent. If the unit is operated on its side, proper cooling will not take place. The chips will operate too hot and problems will show shortly after the 1 year warranty has expired. So to avoid over heating, use the cool looking stand that comes with the computer or the mounting bracket (also supplied) to mount the CPU on the back of your monitor.
No fan equals no computer sound at all, nice when working on the computer.
So.... 5 stars on everything except the 32 bit OS.
Great little system, 2010-06-13
This is a great little system that I'm using as a Media Center. It has no issues playing videos on our TV over the HDMI connection, even .mkv files. (DivxHD codec is required) The system was easy and straight forward to setup and its tiny form factor is great for just about any room. I recommend this system to anyone who's looking for a Media Center PC.
Con: Only thing that I didn't like, which is all too common with these systems, is the endless junk that comes pre-loaded on it. It took me a little bit of time to uninstall all the apps that I didn't want.
Good little TV PC!, 2010-05-27
I am using this as a TV PC: Netflix, Hulu, Youtube, with the occasional web surfing. The video plays seamlessly, but don't dare scroll while video is playing. The Eee Box attaches perfectly to the back of my TV into the wall-mount holes, so you won't see it, or need shelf space. I can't speak for the instructions, included keyboard, cables, etc. because I just unpacked it, hooked everything up and and everything worked great. I bought a wireless keyboard/mouse all-in-one that works great for recliner surfing. Buy with confidence!
Great l'il PC, 2010-05-24
It was a little pricier than I wanted to spend. But it is small, silent, and does everything my wife needs it too. Plus she loves the way it looks. I couldn't be happier with the PC and the lack complaints... so far.
