A lot of different embedded devices which base on x86 cpus, just ask the web search engine of your trust. It will be hard to get it for "only" $50. But paying some more bucks for a system which fits the needs is justified in my opinion. My personal favorites are the boxes from this small company in Switzerland: http://www.pcengines.ch BTW: The RPI as a system looks like a very compact streaming client to me (honestly, which firewall needs a HDMI port?). If I would want to run a streaming client with a freely available OS OpenBSD is not my first choice. Don't get me wrong, I love OpenBSD. But not every OS available is the right choice for every job. Although some folks selling (and even some developing) products basing on the Linux kernel try to tell you this about their products. Regards, Bruno
