I don't know if you feel the same way as I do, but I really dislike DRM in any form. Recently I experienced a DRM situation that was even more bothersome than normal. This particular device was not able to login to a support application because the cable company did not support using the service through it, though they did with similar devices. Just another reason why having an HTPC is sometime the easiest thing to deal with since all of the streaming service seem to support them. Thankfully we no longer need to have a large computer near our TV like we used since there are several solutions available for mini pcs. One in particular is the Intel NUC, including an i7 version the NUC5i7RYH. This includes the i7-5557U processor based on the ?Broadwell? architecture, which is clocked at 3.1GHz with a turbo to 3.4GHz, but best of all it sports the Intel Iris graphics 6100 on die. With this architecture the NUC is able to offer low power consumption while packing a punch in processing power. The NUC kit includes an Intel Gigabit LAN, 2x2 Dual-Band 802.11ac wireless, Bluetooth 4.0, HDMI 1.4a, DisplayPort 1.2, and four USB 3.0 ports. The system supports M.2 PCIe drives, a 2.5? hard drive, and up to 16GB of DDR3 1333/1600MHz memory.
