Dell's Tiny, Cheap "Project Ophelia" Computer - Eastman's Online Genealogy Newsletter

"Project Ophelia" computers will include wireless wi-fi and Bluetooth networking, along with sufficient memory and video capabilities to run many programs. Users will be able to download apps (including genealogy apps), movies, and TV shows from the Google Play store. Users will also be able to run Android games or stream movies from Hulu or Netflix. Of course, the system is fully capable of surfing the web, reading and writing email, as well as using Facebook, Google Plus, LinkedIn, and other social networking sites. Ophelia will also come with Wyse's PocketCloud, which allows users to access files stored on PCs, servers or mobile devices. The tiny computer will also (optionally) connect to virtualization platforms from Citrix, Microsoft and VMware, increasing security required by those who have to tote information around.
I believe Apple TV provides similar functionality as well. I'm a little skeptical about all of the computer/tv hybrids, I question how easily they operate from my recliner. Guess I need to play with one.
