Easily displays constantly cycling pictures displayed in a web browser that communicates with a CCTV system. This type of display does not require much effort from the onboard Intel graphics features. Easily works with a single 8GB SO-DIMM (Kingston KVR, 1.35v, DDR3-1600) in the proper DIMM slot in my case. The proper slot to use for single DIMM operation is covered in the manual. Supports 4 SATA-3 devices, but I am only using 1 device. read the manual to determine which connectors are direct to the SoC and which are connected to the SoC via the onboard ASmedia SATA chip (that is supported in current version of Linux). The network chip is Realtek and supported in Linux "by default", but load the Realtek network chip firmware from your Linux distribution to ensure stable operation. No issues detecting the USB2 and USB ports on this board.

Paired with an old Crucial 64 gb ssd and a 4 GB of memory I had laying around. Bought a $10 laptop psu/brick for dc power. It draws about 18 W when idle. Win7 boot times are speedy, I'd guess around 30 s - far faster than my i7 laptop that has a mech drive. Streaming videos via Silverlight/Flash works smoothly. I dropped in a PCI x1 card for accessing my network wirelessly (802.11n) - it works like a champ. I can stream compressed 1080p content easily, no hiccups.
