Looks very nice but the Reviewer left out one very important aspect of the Review....
What OS was used or Installed...???
there is no mention if there is a Pre-Installed OS or you need you own?
Inquiring minds want to know...

Were you able to play 1080p videos with it? When I was doing the review for this on Neo, I could play 720p fine but I couldn't play any of my random 1080p clips on it.
