I vaguely remember commenting something to the same effect when Mighty first popped up on HN, but ignoring all of the other problems of streaming my web browsing off of someone else's computer (which is a giant problem, I have zero interest in routing all of my network requests through this company), I just can't figure out how to make ~$330-360 a year competitive pricing as a long term investment. I'm supposed to spend $1000 every 3 years for just a web browser and no other computing hardware, for a machine that I don't get to keep? I just don't see it, who are the people who need this kind of performance from a web browser and who wouldn't want to buy decent machine that can also do stuff like play games or run native software? An average computer will last me 3-4 years at least, and for somewhere in the neighborhood of $1200-1300 I can get a good computer. And it'll handle web usage just fine. Maybe this is just that I'm on Linux/Firefox, but they're bragging about 40 tabs, and that's nothing. I regularly run 500 tabs in Firefox, and have on occasion reached 1000-1500 during periods where I've completely fallen off of the organizational bandwagon and completely broken down in terms of maintenance. I'm not saying that's good, but I am saying I don't need 40 Gigs of RAM to do that. This is wild overkill for web browsing. Even if they're never closing any tabs ever, it feels weird that this company is building a browser (even just wrapping around Chrome), and they're identifying a problem with existing browser UIs and resource management, and instead of copying Firefox's tab unloading, or improving workflows so it's easier to serialize and save tabs and close them -- instead we're going all in on streaming? Do what you want I guess, but if Firefox can pull off 500-1000 tabs with 16 Gigs of RAM on my computer, and my computer can also run native apps and games... I don't know, what's being offered here does not seem like it's worth $330 a year to me, but people are free to make their own decisions.
