PC-over-IP is coming and already has HTML5 clients. With dedicated decoding hardware you can even play streamed games at low latency and good framerates http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YJwekaJ6Ys http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7YJwekaJ6Ys I wonder where personal computing will go. Either this where the personal pc is more or less a dumb terminal, or something like ChromeOS with a Client/Server hybrid approach.

Another example: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zJ8TNcWTyo http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6zJ8TNcWTyo That's Gate One's forthcoming X11 feature. Still haven't got audio working yet...

  I tried really hard to get audio out of a remote Xen VM without a soundcard, for quite some time, and failed. Happy to send you my notes, see if you get farther.

PC-over-IP is a protocol. Mainframe2 is a service. It's like comparing SVN to Dropbox. Also, apps on Mainframe2 run just fine on Chromebook today (we'll post back once public demo is ready). Nikola (founder at Mainframe2)

  I know, this was just meant more as a general comment on the industry. Mainframe2 looks really interesting and i see the potential, cant wait to try out more!
