Which media player to choose with a browser?

We want to hang up a telly in the department and bring the Zabbix console to it. The TV we have turned out to be without a browser, so we need some kind of device with Wi-Fi, HDMI and a modern browser. You can, of course, assemble a computer or, there, a Raspberry Pi, but maybe there is some simple, ready-made and not very expensive solution? (within, say, 10 tr.) We are
looking at the Intel Compute Stick. Has anyone had any dealings with this thing?

They had it for the purpose of displaying information from Zabbix. The solution is simple and unpretentious, easily integrated into the existing infrastructure. Windows or Linux - use what you like, what you are used to and what you know how to manage effectively.
But there is a nuance. I don’t know how it is now, but frankly unsuccessful revisions used to come across. In particular, we had a disgusting Wi-Fi performance. Moreover, the problem turned out to be iron and massive, so I had to use a USB / Ethernet adapter. Therefore, before buying, you should carefully study the forums for a specific P / N.
It is also worth noting the power supply. It is relatively large and needs space. And when, after about two years of operation, the original PSU failed, it turned out that it was not so easy to find a working replacement.

We use this Zotac as a device for automatically launching Chrome with a certain site. Stuck behind the TV. For about a year it worked without problems, then it began to hang regularly due to overheating. I had to collective farm a 6-cm fan, power it from a single USB. We thought to look for alternatives, in this form factor everything else is even worse. Intel has about 4 models, all castrated in their own way.
Demanding on the power of the power supply. The complete PSU for 3A did not fit in the narrow space behind the TV, but there were a couple of models that we managed to use. With any random 2A PSU, strange effects occur when starting Windows.

Didn't find what you were looking for?
