Hi there,
I am currently on the look out for a small mini-pc to run XBMC off and connect to my mediaportal server.
I know loads of people have had success with the Raspberry Pi but I cannot ignore the fact that the new Cubieboard is so much more powerful than the Pi for not much more.
The only major drawback, of course, is the lack of support for the Cubieboard (and conversely, a lack of a dedicated version of XBMC in the form of Raspbmc) but I assume that this will change over time.
At the moment, I am thinking of getting the Cubieboard and installing Openelec on it.
Any advice on what to go for would be much appreciated.
Thanks
