for the $170 that we spent on it. It has been great. It runs what we need really well (we also use it for Pandora and YouTube etc). It's nice to have a full desktop in the living room and makes it easy to watch things from the NAS. I could have put iTunes on it as well but I won the AppleTv so .... might as well use it.
So you mentioned a NAS - what are you using for a NAS? And how do you get your data on the NAS? manually copy things there?

We have a WesternDigital https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B00I2P56FE/ref=oh_aui_search_detailpage?ie=UTF8&psc=1
We copy things directly to it as needed. We are in the process of moving our DVD library there.

LOL I moved my DVD library to Vudu, problem (for me) solved, cost $1-2 per disk.
Vudu also allows for offline viewing, you download their app on Windows and then download the movie.

We decided to go with local storage. This machine is also a backup target for things here.

Doesn't work well when you have a Roku, but no internet.
My local plex server has been a Godsend a few times.

Bored games are generally well... boring unless you have more than a couple of folks playing, but not too many at once.

Hopefully getting rid of some more stuff before heading out to Boise!
Probably some Warframe in between sales. -
This will be a long weekend. Monday is "Tag der Deutschen Einheit" (German Unification Day), an annual official holiday to celebrate the unification of west and east Germany in 1990.
