Onlive just launched with a bizarre pricing scheme.

So I went hunting for any alternative. Streammygame popped up. Apparently I already had an account. LOL.

Installed the free server on my Win7 box, and the free client on my Linux netbook.

After much fumbling with the interface (you have to use there website). I was able to get psX emulation working, and Steam's Portal playing fairly nicely on my netbook.

I'm really impressed with this tech.
If I had more internet bandwidth (upstream) I'd consider paying for a basic subscription.

The free player does all I need for now. Play over the lan. Max video of 640x480 which is over kill for my netbook to decode.

I'd like to see a totally free / opensourced version of this tech, that doesn't require logging in to a central website.

I keep hearing about this so I'll have to check it out tonight.

Not sure what it does? went to the webpage but no real info

Allows you to play your games remotely on almost any system, Mac,Windows,Linux,PS3 with low specs.
Also allows anyone with the client installed to spectate.
Works with games, programs, and even VM's. Extensive database.
Use over internet, or lan.

I remember doing warcraft auction house hustling through winvnc. really bad...

That's like the remote play for psp from ps3...same concept. All my comps are in the same room and I lack enough interwebs horsepower to play remotely...
