Post your experience here afterwards.

Looks great. Installed and ran smoothly.

Steam refused to install DOOM (the recent reboot) and COD Black Ops II. Not a failed attempt - a dialog popped up declining to install. Maybe there's a license deal behind the scenes that governs that.

Very cool that it worked at all. I had a playable game during a screen-sharing telecon on the same machine. For science only, of course.

I just tried it and am completely floored. It worked wonderfully. Just some expected mouse input lag. Otherwise smooth as butter.

I have gigabit fiber so that might help a little with the overall experience but I'd be willing to pay a good amount of money for this as a service.

Ok, just started it.

I'm ABSOLUTELY FLOORED. Like, to the point where I' debating selling my gaming PC if I can get a better internet connection to reduce the input lag a bit. But even with that, the input lag is barely noticeable.

I'm playing Destiny 2, highest graphics settings, at 1920x1080, totally smoothly.... on my 2012 MacBook.

This is a game changer. Thanks for the suggestion!!

I feel the exact same way. My productivity is probably gonna take a nosedive tho.

I feel I need to tell everyone I know about this.

Will do!
