Having a background in high speed financial trading technology I was across the nuances there but these new implications are substantial - way beyond gaming into mass media/cable/TV etc. Time to get more data centres into NZ and Oz! BTW good to talk at tech23, sorry I got dragged away with Ric. Cheers, Pete. Awesome Rod, thanks for sharing.

Given there is often 50ms of input lag between your OS and an LCD alone before you take into any decoding or networking/connection effect I'd pretty dubious about the viability for "real" gaming (FPS, RTS, Raching, Fighters) Sounds great for casual slow paced games though.

I'd never heard of OnLive before. This is a very disruptive technology for a market that has such high barriers to entry. Fascinating video. I’d never heard of OnLive before.
