Minix Neo Z64 Win 8.1 Fanless Mini PC

Hi all,

I've been an Android media box user for a number of years primarily for streaming media from a NAS, online sport streaming and watching Netflix but I'm thinking of migrating to this Win 8.1 box http://www.minix.com.hk/News/15012318255340.html

I believe I'll get a better/more stable XBMC/KODI experience on the Win 8.1 platform Vs Android and Netflix will run in HD on Chrome whereas the Android App is only SD for some bizarre reason.

Another side benefit is becuase it's Windows I'll be able to load Minecraft and let my 10 year old go from playing on an old 12" screen laptop to a 40" HD TV which should bring a major smile to her face

Anyway, I'm just wondering if this is the right place to get some user feedback on the use of Win 8.1. media boxes. Is it worth switching or is the end experience (excluding the Minecraft bit) more or less the same?

Freaktab have a sub-forum dedicated to Windows mini PCs and the general consensus there amongst mostly hardened Android heads are that the Windows Mini PCs are head and shoulders above any of the Android boxes and as you outline are very versatile.

Take a read there for more info.
