Raspberry PI 2B as Desktop PC Really?

[Jeff_Kearns]

I use the Raspberry Pi as an XBMC (now Kodi) entertainment centre with my 60" HDTV and surround sound system. Check out tvaddons.ag for details.

The entire setup cost CAD$100 - cheaper than an Android box and most other platforms unless you have a laptop with HDMI output in which case the only cost would be an HDMI cable. Included in the kit from buyapi.ca were the following:

> Pi2
> Power Supply
> USB wifi dongle
> HDMI cable
> Case
> OpenELEC OS, with XBMC (now Kodi) pre-installed.
