4 works good on Chromebox. If I'm playing a movie and messing with setting at the same time, it seems to freeze up. I'm assuming because the processor isn't good enough. 5 is just missing too many things i use. The random movie widget for one. The widgets don't seem to cooperate well yet in 5.

Installed XBMCbuntu 13 Gotham a few days ago, and I'm using Aeon Nox 5. Compared to 4, it's really missing a lot of eyecandy features that makes it heavier than now. It's good to know that AN5 is lighter than AN4, but all those missing features made me opt for AN4.

I just installed Gotham along with AN5 and hate to admit it but I absolutely hate it. It's nothing like AN4, the fonts have all changed, the lack of widgets on the home screen. Only 7 x 2 on the movie wall.
I instantly installed AN4 for Gotham and was releaved to be back to how AN theme should be. I'll be sticking with AN4 for the moment.
Easily the best skin out there for XBMC.

I recently did the Gotham update and was an avid aeon nox user. After the upgrade I went to 5 and quite honestly did not like it. Too much missing. I then switched to aeon mq5. Played with that for a week and while it looked good and I got a few mods working, just didn't have the feel and too many options different or missing. Also all the options and text were super small to fit all the options.
As of yesterday i reverted back to official 4.09 and hope 1.9 gets an official nod and place on the repository.
