 I am interested i this project. I will probably contact you offline for orientation and assistance, then when done I'll share my experiences.. First off, I have to get one of those sticks :-) Salvador

 I was playing around with this stick and found out a few things to make it faster
I was running LUBUNTU because I figured that since it's so lean it  would make it faster but I was wrong.  I installed Ubuntu 14 and found the Intel Atom seems to be able to run this OS using less resources than Lite Ubuntu.
Also using the LXDE desktop (‎https://lxde.org/) instead of Gnome or Unity made a noticeable improvement. Xfce runs well but is not really needed if you are using the compute stick as a emulator.  I only use the desktop to switch between emulator apps. (vcc,Dosbox,retro arch)‎ so the bare bones LXDE is the obvious choice
