Will the computer handle streaming video from the internet?

Absolutely! Watched Netflix, YouTube and news videos on it several times. Hope this is what you are asking.

I'm not sure. I didn't keep the Lenovo long enough to test what it could do. I returned it as soon as I could tell that it wasn't working properly. Sorry I couldn't help you.

Don't think it is possible. It can take videos, but it cannot stream live to the internet.

I do not know. This is not a work horse. Light web surfing eg. YouTube, Gplus, word possessing and maybe watching a movie on Plex, That's it.

It can stream video, film, music and internet media, as for the online newspaper it need to have a check. Best regards, Mudder

Yes you can surf the web. My only gripe about it though is that it's generally pretty slow-going. Turning the t.v. into a 55" computer is pretty cool but just don't expect the same performance as your p.c. or laptop. Every now and then I'll miss an episode of a show I like and I'll watch it on the t.v. via the t.v. network's site instead of my laptop.

Thanks. I am assuming from all these answers that the Eee PC processor (Atom N270 or N280) is beefy enough to show the video without jerkiness or other problems?

Yes. It carries ethernet which is universal to all computers that need to go on the web.

Depends on what kind of work, I guess. I haven't tried this setup. Cpu is good enough, and memory could be added if needed - also to assist with video ram, but my guess is that the gpu would fall short if this is how you plan to use the unit. Having said that, I find streaming to one window while working in another works fine on a single monitor setup. My "work" being simple tasks with browsing, email and office applications.

No. You have to have it connected to something that can stream video, like a DVD player or a chromecast.

None. The all Rokus connect to your television and your home network. No computer required.

No, it is just a tablet. One can only see a video from streaming internet source.

I do not have connected to any video streaming just audio. I would say yes if you have a pure gigabit router and Internet pipe. The switch lights show yellow if you do not have the gig pipe and green if you do. HTH

Yes I do. You're able to search from any website. Stream any movie. With no hesitation slowdowns or delays. This computer is capable of doing anything I wanted to do. And with an external hard drive for additional movies and/or music you can't beat it

Yes, I'm guessing it will. We got a new computer to add to our home network and I was able to load and use it from there.

I have had this device for over a year now. Pretty much any website will load on the built in chrome web browser. Certain websites like ABC and Hulu block video streaming to this device due to some sort of licensing conflict. The web browsing tends to be a little bit slower and clunky compared to a laptop or desktop computer, but the device is very convenient. As long as you have a fast internet connection (anything better than DSL) streaming video will work great. If the device ever freezes or crashes you can press "control" + "alt" + "delete" to restart it.

Yes you can get on the internet. The computer is not very good quality though.
