5.0 out of 5 stars
Cracking machine for cheap HD playback,
By
This review is from: Acer Aspire Revo R3600 Desktop PC (Intel Atom N230 1.6 Ghz, 2 GB RAM, 160 GB HDD, Vista Home Premium) (Electronics)
I bought one of these to sit in the bedroom as a media playback machine. Running Ubuntu and Boxee it plays 720p and 1080p video perfectly. I watch BBC iPlayer on it full screen, full speed with no issue.
Only omission is bluetooth, but bluetooth dongles are super cheap, so that's not a major issue.

Ideal media centre PC - especially the price,

I am really pleased with this computer. It's a doddle to set up, sits out of sight behind by TV and is so quiet.
To get the best out of it, remove all the unnecessary software which comes with it (especially McAfee). Install the latest drivers from the NVIDIA website, then install Media Player Classic Home Cinema (free) to watch video files in HD. To get the best out of iPlayer (including watching it in streaming HD), install the new Adobe Flash 10.1 - the built-in graphic accelerator removes the jitters you get with previous versions of Flash.

Very compact and silent PC,

I got this for my mum and have installed Windows 7 on it as is much better than the Vista OS supplied. All drivers are found but you will have to download the latest ION drivers from NVidia.
Overall this unit is very small, sleek and silent. But underpowered. The 1.6Ghz Atom processor really strains under everyday computing conditions, its 'ok' for Word 2007 and Internet Explorer 8, just dont expect too much performance (gaming) and you wont be upset. I'm thinking about getting one of these to use as a media player as it has a HDMI port, perfect for plugging into my hdtv for divx and BBC iPlayer duties.
