I've got a stable 1.4GHz overclock on it, and I'm impressed with how mature all the retroarch coires perform on this cheap little thing! Best $35 I've spent on a computer. I can play everything up to PS1, all prettymuch flawlessly. I have it setup with a 1080p LED TV and a USB SNES pad clone. For PS1 games I use my wired Xbox 360 controller. It also has wireless Logitech KB+Mouse, and gets a good wi-fi signal for retroarch updates.
I'm going to build an oversized Gameboy to house it in with a 10.1 inch LCD, custom buttons, and battery for a convention I have coming up in October. I'll be able to walk around the convention wearing a playable Gameboy. I'm thinking of using a light-weight, yet hard foam of some kind, one I can cut down and sand to my needs, but also durable. I think the hardest part will be powering the LCD, as it takes 12v @2.1 Amps, and that's quite a strain on even the best power banks. So if anyone has battery cell or power bank recommendations, let me know. I'm no stranger to a soldering iron, but the cleaner the better.
I also made my own splash screen in Photoshop:
