... if you can deal with the 250-2000ms display lag sure

and you have to use a remote windowing dealie

I'm only 23ms from us-west1. See my other note about OpenGL/DirectX right now, but you shouldn't assume anything like those round-trip times...

Is that number based on your experience using it this way with something like RDP/TurboVNC, or anecdotal based on other cloud providerS?

I tried with AWS GPU once and only once. Probably if you spend time and effort you can get it down a fair bit

From my experience, network in GCE is way more stable and usable than it's AWS counterpart. So maybe we can see another OnLive rise again ;)

(I'm joking, but there has to be a day when it's possible, right?)

Don't use Wi-Fi. My lag was 300ms from my desktop to US-West-2 and then I used an ethernet cable and it dropped to 30ms.

I use ethernet for that sort of thing. I did get 200ms and 2000ms latency regularly anyhow
