I have tried the demo. It's insanely great. Wireless VR is a big deal. VR over the cloud is a huge deal. If they really can deliver 10 ms latency consistently it's Uber for computing. There won't be any sense to buy a computer when you can rent it in the cloud and experience is flawless. It was flawless for me for VR demo, where latency is mission critical. Good luck, Sixa!

Hoping for a product like this. Ever since Dropbox did for consumer cloud storage, there needs to be an OS in the cloud

@kevinyun And people will don't need to buy or upgrade hardware anymore. You need more RAM - click. More GPU - click. Better processor - click

This looks really cool, and these types of 'true' cloud computers have been a dream for a long time! I'm really curious though on long-term pricing - if I were to sign up for your "Developers" plan for $50/month that would quickly add up to $2-3k over a "regular" laptop's 4/5-year lifespan. That money could easily buy a laptop to realistically challenge pretty much any hardware you're offering for $50/month. Is there any price argument being made here, or are customers paying mostly for the experience/convenience?

Looks great. I'm looking forward to try it. If this is for real it means they managed to somehow solve the prohibitive network lag issue for this kind of applications.

@ohadisohad Unfortunately lag issue can't be solved. But the latency consist not only from the network. It consist from the input, network up, application pipeline, encode, network down, decode, and display. There are a lot of room for optimizations )

Heard one of the founders speak on the topic of getting into YC, quite an impressive company and product!

Here's my experience: 1. Most of the servers are overloaded and cannot create the chosen VMs 2. If you finally manage to get a VM running it doesn't have the specs promised (number of CPUs, and types don't match the advertised specs) 3. Bought 60 credits to reserve a VM for month -> get error, sorry no VMs available, cannot create one 4. Contact support -> no clear answer, they don't tell you when VMs will be available, they just tell you to check the site, which has no blog, status updates, anything But once you have a machine working, yes it's pretty fast and can install whatever you want...
