Put xubuntu and boxee on my MSI Wind Nettop 100, plays 720p perfectly fine, at least everything I tried, tv doesn’t do 1080p, does 1080i though. There’s a bug in boxee, it crashes sometimes when playing an audio file, really annoying. Oh yeah put the boxee remote app on iPod touch, and changed wireless N router to mixed mode, so I can use iPod touch with boxee. Also bought a D-Link gigabyte switch, so I can have linkstation and MSI Wind Nettop 100 connected by gigabyte speeds. That came yesterday too, and works fine. It has a rebate according to amazon, but to lazy to fill that out, don’t care about rebate.

How are you hooking it up to tv? VGA? Cool, gotta go get a keyboard, and mouse, and hard drive to fuck around with mine.
Yeah obviously its connected by VGA.
If you read the product page it clearly says “The VGA port can not be converted into DVI or HDMI through any adapter.”.

Guess you’d need a converter. No point in paying any money for that, when my TV has VGA.
VGA can go higher than HDMI. Very nice, wonder how Hulu looks, like crap like it always does probably.
