Why not those tiny computer HDMI compute stick?

Something like this:

You have other brands available that you can look at. I think Zotac released one with Ethernet port.

 

They are obviously slow computers (Atom), but should handle Windows 10, and playing videos at 1080p.

 

I don't know, all I am saying, based on your budget, it is worth a quick look. Obviously the downside, is that you can't expand it, and is slower than what is proposed, and only has 1x USB 3.0 port,

Good idea. That'll work fine. Thanks!

If you have Windows 10, you can use the Netflix Windows 10 App.

Can you use Netflix on raspberry pi 3 beside via the web browser? 'cause I think Netflix blocked that.
