Yes .... however, the display is not stunning on a TV.
The box is basically an Acorn Archimedes without the module necessary to
run a the full desktop, and a pretty poor web browser.
For those that know Acorn hardware, its about an A7000 with the IO
podule etc missing, or in-between an A5000 and a RISC PC). It's much
more fun to think of it as a toy you can play and hack about with for 8
quid, rather than a tool to browse the web through a tv.
Cheers
Andrew
