Celeron 847, 1007U, 1037U is IMHO really the best x86 value for running OpenELEC.

The topic of the thread was "best" device for XBMC. The Gbox Midnight is faaaaar from the best. Not a bad box, not at all, but certainly not the best.

The funny thing too is there are some really good answers here. I am not sure what the beef is.

I have to say that after owning an OUYA, Yes, I said an OUYA, (I did not buy it for it's gaming features, only XBMC which comes pre-installed), for almost 2 months now it has to be one of the best devices for running XBMC and I have used XBMC on a Macbook Pro, Sero tablet, and an ATV II. First off for the price you can't beat it, I paid $89 on Amazon. Second for a very small form factor, the hardware is very nice (Quad Core 1.7 GHz Processor, HDMI, Nvidia, the controller is solid (has a built in track pad) and with Ethernet, Bluetooth and Wireless, (while not the greatest) and USB Port. I have since added a Hausbell wireless Keyboard to the OUYA for it's better keyboard capabilities. I also like the endless apps you can run on it and it's sideloading abilities. I hear so many people bad mouth the OUYA for gaming, but have failed to see its potential for running XBMC. As apposed to buying a laptop or an ATV II which is fetching big money, look at the OUYA, you will not be disappointed. We have 5 people at my job using the OUYA and we all love it....
