In fact, I thinking of getting one just to hook up to our TV for online streaming.
I have one connected to every tv in the house.
Originally just for streaming but the one in the living room has turned into my main browsing machine.
I like to mess with them as a hobby but I couldn’t resist the free OS.
In my area you can get a solid machine that will run any available OS for less than $60 if you know what to look for.
I get all of mine from Craigslist.
I bought a Android TV box and have it hooked to net and TV. Use a minature Bluetooth /WiFi touch pad / backlit keyboard. Installed a few browsers, YouTube and Kodi app. Octa core and quad core processors and 3g ram. Under $100 including cables. .. works great.
