I found the Pi not well suited to media playing apps. Playing the
media was okay ish, not perfect, but navigating the menus was painful.
I have an Acer Aspire Revo 3600 which has an Atom CPU and nVidia GPU,
running a stripped down Linux distro and XBMC. Works a treat with an
external remote control. The only thing it doesn't do is power down/up
when I need it.
You can pick them up on ebay.
Cheers,
Al.
