I'm using Alaska on XBMC Live installed to a thumb drive.

I'm seeing alot of people use this on different setups. What is the thought process behind XBMC Live on a thumb drive? If this is a dedicated device why not keep it installed on the internal HDD on the system?

Another thing: I'm looking at the signle core Atom 230 Acer Revo for $200 and tossing XBMC-Live on it and using that as my HTPC. Goons with similar setups, what don;t you like about your Revo?

I’ve been a GeForce Now user for a few years and use it play older hitman and Assassins Creed games and 99% of the time it’s great on my 2017 Shield Pro. Handled FarCry 5 and 6 like a champ. IMO worth the $5 a month or whatever I pay for it for how infrequently I play video games anymore.

But that box is my streaming box and I’ve rarely had issues with IT specifically. Usually it’s my Plex Server or something vs the box itself. I did opt for a different launcher, because the ads got to be too much for me.
