I have a laptop and the screen broke I was wondering if this would work to stream full 1080P mkv files from a NAS and be able to run xbmc ... is there anything i should watch out for that it can't do.
This is what I could find for the info on it. any help would be greatly appreciated.

It's not really that old.
I use a 2009 laptop with a core2duo processor and it works fine.
It depends what OS you want to install on the laptop really.

thanks what would be the best OS i am open to anything. I would prefer windows but if there is a greater benefit to linux distro that is fine. Also is there any cool power saving options for it so it will wake up only when it has to and be asleep otherwise.
