It's a underpowered eeepc. I have some difficulty with youtube, fullscreen youtube is impossible.

If they gave me an SD stream that I could throw at mplayer, then that would work, but I don't reasonably expect them to do that just for me.

Ah, I see, it's just your hardware.

That's unfortunate - but then again, that's what I love about Linux... it lets me salvage even old or low-quality hardware.

Yup. With Linux buying a replacement laptop cheaper than my (shitty) phone works out pretty decently!
