Yes, it'll replace the whole system and likely be MUCH snappier.
Thanks, that would be cheaper than replacing the televisions so I think I'll try it

SFBadger, I throughly enjoyed your PM the other day. I intend to respond once I have a little space and a real key board. You won’t change my mind, but it does let me see things in a different light.

I didn't think I would change your mind, but I'm happy if it shed some light on a different perspective without a giant flame war ensuing. :-)

I read once a thing which happens during "discussions" often as not.  Folks tend to hear in order to rebut, rather than hearing to understand or clarify. 

I see that fairly often.  I also think it's generally not useful to make an effort to change another's mind on a topic, but it can be to try and understand better what they think and why they think that.

We're unlikely to change anyone's opinion here, but we might benefit by understanding better why they have that opinion, and what it actually is.

It's not an opinion. It is fact.

I did this with a slow AF Samsung TV. Roku took it over, the TV is basically a display at this point.

A Roku Streaming Stick is a small device that plugs into your TV's HDMI port to provide streaming content. It works by connecting to your TV's Wi-Fi network and giving you access to thousands of streaming channels. 

Interesting.  My TV picks up some items like youtube already.  What other streaming content is out there and free?

Our building is discussing cancelling our sat TV service.
