After the ausus EEE series became hip I tried a random cheap product which was supposed to be a media center / entertainment system. It was horribly slow, running android. Even more worrying was that they rubbed remote desktop stuff under my nose all the time. I was so scared to handle any remotely personal with it that I gave up on it after 2 sessions of messing with it.

If you don't care about the money, test you luck. But I would be very careful. At least considering security/privacy.
