". Btw, was it used for home entertainment as in movies, tv or music?"
It has multiple uses.
- can stream movies from anywhere on my home network or the 128 gig storage on the Bell modem
-can boot quickly into virtual Mint (and maybe play TuxRacer

)
-can wander the Internet with a wired-in connection
-can do email
- has a remote keyboard and mouse, so I can sit on our reclining couch and use it as an ordinary computer
and with the press of a button, we can go back to regular TV watching
'Can' is wrong of course. 'Used to be able to' is now more appropriate. (Sob, sob.)
