“Zotac is one of the companies most committed to this kind of products and has a broad product line intended for the public in general and very competitive prices, so it becomes a very interesting solution due to their low price and good performance.”
“Among the things we have drawn attention, aside from its compact design, is that it lacks any of the best features and connectivities and becomes an ideal system, for an attractive price for office tasks, navigation, entertainment and multimedia”
“Jointly, this mini-PC is very good, as it has its own media remote, which already leads us to where we need to go further to its receptor, a must if we want to use this command”

I was able to stream full 1080p video from YouTube without a problem, and it played smoothly embedded and in full screen. XBMC also ran very smoothly, including OpenGL visualizers for music, and HD movies with the UI overlay. It’s no Intel Core i7, but it’s more than enough for casual media consumption. I thoroughly enjoyed the Zotac ZBOX, and I give it 9.5 green power circles out of 10!

With all of that said, and my quick rant out of the way I still can’t deny the ZBOX AD13 Plus its due diligence. It’s a very fluid small nano PC that has all the capabilities one would want in a daily driver for checking email, playing Facebook games or even watching 1080P movies in the living room.
