    The nice thing about chromecast is it uses hardly any power.

    The xbox on the other hand needs its on nuclear generator to power it. Well at least the 360 did, I haven't tested an Xbox one yet.

    Great for making white noise as well! When those fan kick up I thought the fucking thing was going to take flight!

    I did liquid cool a guys xbox 360 once. That was so much fun to build. Had to hack the shit out of the case but it looked cool with all the green fluid pumping through the clear hoses.

    Probably 7" the 10" would be nice but I'm going to use it for everything from homework to web browsing to taking it climbing to use the mountain project app and look at what I'm getting with my gopro. So the smaller size would be better for taking w/ me everywhere

    I picked it up from best buy earlier since it was on sale. This thing is awesome and going to be perfect for what I want it to do.

    I am interested in computers and messing with things but idk how much I'm going to do to it. The most ill probably be a game emulator and some old gameboy games

    It's pretty nifty, the software to change the colors is a bit wonky but once you figure it out it's not too bad lol. I like the small footprint of it, plus cherry mx switches and such... I wanna build a little table thing for it and the mouse pad so I can use it in bed for controls, or on a tv tray type of deal.
