I bought this a week ago for use as a dedicated retro gaming console with my TV - basically something to use with simple, lightweight applications only. It does the job very well. It can even play Minecraft if I let it load for a long time (like, once your world loads, still let it sit for a few minutes and load some more). Obviously not a gaming PC or a robust system, but I've been pleasantly surprised by the lack of laginess and that it does what I want it to do.
