I run my deck in desktop mode 90% of the time. You can intall the browser of your choice and stream. Netflix, hulu, disney, amazon, youtube all work normally. I recommend a wireless keyboard and mouse so you can run it from the comfort of your couch. You also need a dock to comnect the deck to the tv via hdmi but those are pretty plug and play.
