    I found this Chromecast thing to be a pretty cool, easy to set up and use... They make a newer version now and if it's anything like this original one, worth every penny.

    This is a fantastic and relatively inexpensive way to see your internet on the TV. Worked within minutes of plugging in and have been super happy with it. It looks fantastic on the big screen.

    I would recommend this product for friends or anyone looking to stream Netflix or Hulu. Wish it would also stream some other content. That would be helpful.

    Plug it in, download the app, "quick" set-up on multiple computers/smartphones (once you've figured out the first one) and watch what you've streamed on your TV. Should have come with better instructions for the not-so-tech-savvy. Not being very techno savvy, we didn't fully understand the whole streaming process, but the price made it easy to take the plunge. Now we can watch more TV shows and movies only available on the internet and newer smart TVs on our not-so-smart HD TV. Works great with Android and Windows 7. Does not work with older than most current version of MAC.

    There is no better streaming gadget on the market today. I had a Roku that lagged and cut out because it was one floor above my WiFi router. The chrome cast has worked every time without fail.

    I'm a big fan of the Chromecast. It is easy to set up and very useful. I use it with my laptop, phone, and iPad. Definitely worth the money and I plan on getting a 2nd one for my living room.

    The price was right so we opted to purchase the ChromeCast over another AppleTV or Roku. At first we were a little bummed as the available options were limited. Now that they have added Hulu TV, we are able to get most of what we want from the net and at a price that's about a third of the other devices. Note, it may be difficult to fit on some TVs and thus an HDMI extender should be used.

    I am sure the chromecasts limited features are just temporary, but the chromecast is amazingly simple to use that I am sure new features will be just as easy.

    I love having no wires from my computer to my tv. And it is so easy to watch a movie with Netflix now. Just look it up on your computer hit play and it automatically turns the tv on. Cool!
